An angled electrical connector for terminating an electrical cable and for engaging with a mating electrical connector, the angled connector comprising: a body having an engagement portion including a sleeve which extends in a longitudinal first direction for engaging with the mating electrical connector, the body further having an opening for routing conductors of the cable away from the connector; and at least one resilient member arranged on the sleeve of the engagement portion, the resilient member being capable of deforming in a transverse direction perpendicular to the first direction and providing a reaction force for maintaining the engagement of the connector with the mating connector, wherein the opening of the body for routing the conductors of the cable away from the connector is arranged to route the cable in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction, wherein the angled electrical connector is characterised in that the at least one resilient member comprises a coil spring extending about the sleeve of the engagement portion, the coils of the coil spring having a canted arrangement, wherein the coil spring is arranged in and retained by a groove or channel formed in the sleeve of the engagement portion such that a portion of the coil spring protrudes out of the groove or channel, and wherein the groove or channel is defined by a flange extending in the transverse direction and defining an annular abutment surface which is parallel to the first direction for abutting a corresponding surface of the mating connector when the connectors (1, 51) are in a fully engaged configuration, to thereby restrict transverse displacement of the connector. a body having an engagement portion including a sleeve which extends in a longitudinal first direction for engaging with the mating electrical connector, the body further having an opening for routing conductors of the cable away from the connector; and at least one resilient member arranged on the sleeve of the engagement portion, the resilient member being capable of deforming in a transverse direction perpendicular to the first direction and providing a reaction force for maintaining the engagement of the connector with the mating connector, wherein the opening of the body for routing the conductors of the cable away from the connector is arranged to route the cable in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction, wherein the angled electrical connector is characterised in that the at least one resilient member comprises a coil spring extending about the sleeve of the engagement portion, the coils of the coil spring having a canted arrangement, wherein the coil spring is arranged in and retained by a groove or channel formed in the sleeve of the engagement portion such that a portion of the coil spring protrudes out of the groove or channel, and wherein the groove or channel is defined by a flange extending in the transverse direction and defining an annular abutment surface which is parallel to the first direction for abutting a corresponding surface of the mating connector when the connectors (1, 51) are in a fully engaged configuration, to thereby restrict transverse displacement of the connector.
