Abstract

An electrical connector includes an electrical connector body and a collar circumferentially surrounding an external surface of the electrical connector. The collar includes a hollow collar body that receives at least a portion of the electrical connector body, the collar body having a cable end and a free end. One or more fingers extend from the free end of the collar body to physically prevent incorrect mating with another corresponding component.
