Abstract
An electrical connector includes a housing having a plug portion configured to be received in a receptacle. The housing has a rear face aligned with and opposing the plug portion. The housing includes a latch beam that is deflectable between a latched state and an unlatched state. A CPA mounted to the housing is movable between open and closed positions and includes a beam that extends through the rear face of the housing to engage the latch beam of the housing to inhibit the latch beam from deflecting to its unlatched state when the CPA is in a closed position.
