An electrical connector is disclosed comprising complementary receptacle and plug connector members, each member having a hollow shell containing an insulating insert which houses electrical contacts. A rotatable coupling ring is carried by the plug and is engageable with the receptacle for mating the connector members and holding the contacts in electrical engagement. A resilient means is interposed between the coupling ring and the plug and has a predetermined range of axial deflection relative to the plug. The receptacle is provided with a plurality of bayonet pins and the coupling ring has a corresponding plurality of pin-receiving tracks to provide a bayonet type releasable connection between the coupling ring and the receptacle. The coupling ring has limited axial movement relative to the plug so that upon mating of the connector members, the coupling ring moves axially along the plug toward the receptacle compressing the resilient means therebetween. A detent means is disposed between the coupling ring and the plug and has a predetermined range of radial movement. The coupling ring has at lest one interior axial slot which extends forwardly from its rearward end, and the detent means is releasably engageable with the slot when the connector is fully mated to substantially preclude inadvertent rotational movement of the coupling ring.
