Abstract

A groundable electrical connector comprising a housing formed of electrically insulating material and a contact element having a longitudinal mating axis, mounted to the housing. The connector is engageable with a mating connector by relative movement along a path parallel to the mating axis, the housing having an elongated recess formed in the outer surface thereof, the recess being aligned parallel to the mating axis for receiving a grounding strip therein. An electrically conductive grounding element is mounted to the housing and has an exposed surface positioned within the recess. The grounding element has means for separably securing a grounding strip thereto.
