A cable connector has male and female connector portions that slide together in a mating direction. The housing of one connector portion has a shoulder with a surface roughly perpendicular to the mating direction. The other connector portion has a resilient retainer spring attached thereto which extends parallel to the mating direction. When the connector portions are mated, the retainer spring has a finger which slips over the shoulder surface and is held in position by the resilience of the spring to provide a retention force that resists a separation of the mal e and female connector portions. However, the finger is shaped and resilience of the retainer spring is such that the finger will slip off the shoulder surface upon application of a sufficiently large separation force so that separation of the connector portions may occu r without damage.
