<p>Disclosed herein is an angled electrical connector (1) for terminating an electrical cable (11) and for engaging with a mating electrical connector (51). The angled connector (1) comprises a body (5) having an engagement portion including a sleeve (7) which extends in a longitudinal first direction for engaging with the mating electrical connector (51), the body further having a collar portion defining an opening arranged for routing conductors of the cable (11) away from the connector (1). The connector (1) also comprises at least one resilient member, such as a coil spring (15), arranged on the sleeve (7) of the engagement portion. The resilient member (15) is capable of deforming in a transverse (radial) direction perpendicular to the first direction and providing a reaction force for maintaining the engagement of the connector (1) with the mating connector (51). The collar portion and the opening for routing the conductors of the cable (11) away from the connector (1) are arranged such that the cable (11) is routed in a second direction that is substantially perpendicular to the first direction. In an alternative arrangement the resilient member (15) is arranged on a sleeve (55) of an engagement portion of the mating connector (51).</p> |
