Claim:
An electrical connector capable of being coupled to another connection device, the electrical connector comprising: an insert having a first end and a second end, wherein the insert is configured to interface the other connection device at the first end; a conductive component that is at least partly supported by the insert, wherein the conductive component includes a portion that is exposed proximate the first end such that the portion is capable of being coupled to another portion of the other connection device, and wherein the conductive component extends outward out of and away from the second end of the insert; a retaining component that extends entirely and continuously around a perimeter of the insert and around the conductive component and substantially prevents relative movement of the insert and at least a part of the conductive component; and overmolding material that encapsulates at least portions of the conductive component and the insert, so as to further substantially prevent relative movement of the insert and the part of the conductive component.
