The invention relates to an electrical or optical connector of the type comprising a fixed male connector part or receptacle ( 3 ) having at least one axial contact pin ( 7 ), and a mobile female connector part or plug ( 1 ) capable of being coupled to the said receptacle ( 3 ) on its front part and having a female contact part, receiving the contact pin ( 7 ) upon coupling of the connector, the said plug ( 1 ) having a rear handle ( 11 ) allowing the coupling or uncoupling manoeuvre of the connector, for example by a remote-controlled vehicle, by means of an arm and an end pincer for gripping the said handle ( 11 ), characterized in that the rear body part ( 15 ) of the plug ( 1 ) has a cavity ( 19 ), capturing with limited angular displacement in axial alignment a ball-joint element ( 13 ) rigidly fixed to the said rear handle ( 11 ), the said ball-joint element ( 13 ) being held in along the axis of the plug ( 1 ) by a spring means ( 35 ), the ball-joint element ( 13 ) also comprising at least one longitudinal spline designed to engage into a complementary groove in the rear body part ( 15 ) of the plug ( 1 ), locking, with limited play, any freedom for the ball-joint element ( 13 ) to rotate relative to the body ( 15 ) of the plug ( 1 ).
