Abstract:
1. A connector assembly comprising: a dielectric having a right angle body comprising a first segment and a second segment extending from the first segment at a right angle corner of the body, the body defining a right angle chamber extending through the first and second segments between a distal end of the first segment and a distal end of the second segment, the dielectric including at least one door at the right angle corner, the door rotatable between an open state and a closed state, the door providing access to the right angle chamber through a rear opening at the right angle corner in the open state, the door restricting access to the rear opening in the closed state; a female center contact configured to be received in the right angle chamber in the first segment of the dielectric, the female center contact having a mating end configured to electrically connect to a mating contact of a mating connector and a terminating end configured to electrically connect to a cable conductor of a cable received in the right angle chamber in the second segment; a front shield receiving a front of the dielectric, wherein upon loading the dielectric into the front shield, the front shield forces the door to move from the open state to the closed state; and a rear shield receiving a rear of the dielectric, the rear shield being configured to couple to the front shield.
