Claim Text:
1. An electrical connector, comprising: a first terminal assembly having a first pin assembly with first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth pins, and a first central conductive member, the first, second, and third pins of the first terminal assembly being physically coupled to the first central conductive member, the fourth, fifth, and sixth pins of the first terminal assembly being physically coupled to the first central conductive member; a longitudinal width of each of the first and second pins of the first terminal assembly being greater than a longitudinal width of a gap between the first and second pins of the first terminal assembly, and a longitudinal width of each of the second and third pins of the first terminal assembly being greater than a longitudianal width of a gap between the second and third pins of the first terminal assembly; a first end cap being removably attached to the first terminal assembly to urge a first electrical terminal against the first, second, and third pins of the first terminal assembly such that the first, second, and third pins of the first terminal assembly extend through and contact the first electrical terminal, and the first electrical terminal is held between the first end cap and the first terminal assembly; a second terminal assembly having a first pin assembly with first, second, and third female pins, and first, second, and third pins, and a second central conductive member; the first, second, and third female pins being physically coupled to the second central conductive member, the first, second, and third pins of the second terminal assembly being physically coupled to the second central conductive member; each of the first, second, and third female pins having an outer wall defining an interior aperture surrounded by the outer wall, and the interior aperture being sized and shaped to receive a respective pin of the first, second, and third pins of the first terminal assembly therein; and a second end cap being removably attached to the second terminal assembly to urge a second electrical terminal against the first, second, and third pins of the second terminal assembly such that the first, second, and third pins of the second terminal assembly extend through and contact the second electrical terminal, and the second electrical terminal is held between the second end cap and the second terminal assembly.
