Abstract
An electrical connector assembly can include a polarization member that is configured to prevent first and second electrical connectors from being mated to each other in an incorrect orientation. The polarization member abuts the first electrical connector such that the first electrical connector provides structural support to the polarization member when the second electrical contacts the polarization member. The polarization member is received by the second electrical connector when the second electrical connector is mated to the first electrical connector in a predetermined orientation.
