PLUG CONNECTOR LOCKING SYSTEMS AND METHODS

摘要

A locking system includes a housing that inhibits access to a latching arm of a plug connector and a key that enables a user to depress the latching arm to release the plug connector from a port. Some types of keys define a concave-shaped camming surface that engages the latching arm of the plug connector when the key is inserted into the housing. Other types of keys define a unitary cam member that depresses the latching arm when rotated. Still other types of keys are configured to engage a separate cam member within the housing to rotate the cam member to depress the latching arm.
