Abstract:

A sealed electrical connector that includes an interface component that has housing with a front end and an opposite rear end, the front end has an open end face for receiving a mating connector, and the rear end for receiving cable. The housing has contacts. A terminal-position-assurance feature is coupled to the contacts and to the housing. The terminal-position-assurance feature may be located at a first axial position along the longitudinal axis of the housing which is a first distance from the open end face of the housing. An interface seal surrounds an outer portion of the housing. The interface seal is located on the housing at a second axial position along the longitudinal axis of the housing which is a second distance from the open end face of the housing. The second distance is greater than the first distance.
