Abstract
A connector and connector kit is provided which includes an insulative housing, a conductive shell and a contact. When assembled, the contact and conductive shell are contained in the insulative housing. In particular, the conductive shell includes one segment which is positioned in a cavity which extends into one surface of the housing, and another segment which extends out of such cavity and into a groove provided at an end of the housing. The contact is positioned in a bore which extends into the housing from an opposite end of the housing to the cavity. The contact and the bore include abutments which engage one another when the connector is assembled to assure proper positioning of the contact relative to the housing.
