An electrical connector includes a connector housing having terminal cavities which are arranged in an array having at least two rows and at least two columns. Each of the terminal cavities are configured to receive electrical terminals. Each terminal cavity defines a flexible primary locking mechanism integrally formed with the connector housing and configured to engage an edge of the electrical terminal, thereby inhibiting removal of the electrical terminals from the terminal cavities. The electrical connector also includes a secondary locking mechanism slidably attached to the connector housing and movable from a pre-staged position to a staged position. The secondary locking mechanism defines a plurality of members configured to extend into the terminal cavities and engage the edge of two electrical terminals when the secondary locking mechanism is in the staged position, thereby further inhibiting removal of the electrical terminals from the terminal cavities.

In one embodiment, the termination block has contact interfaces configure to electrically engage the plug contacts and arranged such that the contact interfaces which are connected to plug contacts 1-8, become connected to plug contacts 8-1 when the termination block is rotated 180 degrees. In one embodiment, the coupling from the paths for contact 3 to contacts 1, 2, 4, and 5, respectively, is the same as the coupling for contact 6 to contacts 7, 8, 5, and 4, respectively.

Provided is a technology for improving high-frequency characteristics in an electrical connector such as a BNC coaxial connector. An electrical connector according to the present disclosure includes: a cylindrical outer conductor; a center terminal located on a central axis of the outer conductor along an axial direction of the central axis; an insulator located coaxially between the outer conductor and the center terminal; and a band-shaped C-ring located inside the outer conductor. The outer conductor includes a housing groove for housing the C-ring, the housing groove being formed on an inner peripheral surface of the outer conductor on a front end side of the center terminal, and the housing groove includes a slope of which inner diameter is smaller on a front end side than on a rear end side, the slope being formed on a front end portion of the housing groove. An end surface on a front end side of the C-ring is corrugated.
