An electrical connector for mounting to a flexible substrate and for coupling with a mating connector (701) having a low-profile. The connector comprises a cover portion (401) arranged to extend in a plane parallel to the substrate so as to cover a mounting hole in the substrate. The connector further comprises a body portion comprising a connection port projecting from the cover portion, the connection port having electrical contacts within an end face of the port. The body portion further comprising an alignment collar (433) arranged circumferentially around the connection port, the alignment collar being provided with an alignment feature at a discrete circumferential position for angularly aligning the mating connector with respect to the connection port. The connection port and alignment collar are surrounded by the cover portion, and an outer periphery of the cover portion is cut away (417) at diametrically opposite positions with respect to the connection port and alignment collar to thereby allow manual flexing of the flexible substrate in said positions when disengaging the mating connector. Also disclosed are an item of clothing or wearable body armour comprising the connector and a connector arrangement comprising the connector and the mating connector. The mating connector is provided with a circumferential gripping rib (713) arranged to a allow the connectors to be disengaged by pinching the mating connector between the flexible substrate and the circumferential gripping rib with thumb and finger arranged at said diametrically opposite positions at which the outer periphery of the cover portion of the connector is cut away. |
