Connector

A connector system, comprising:

• a connector including an inner housing element having a receptacle extending along a mating axis, an outer housing element movable along the mating axis to the inner housing element from an unmated position of the outer housing element to a mated position of the outer housing element, and a coupling element with a hollow, the coupling element is arranged inside the receptacle of the inner housing element and is movable along the mating axis from an unmated position of the coupling element to a mated position of the coupling element, the coupling element is connected to the outer housing element by a motion-reversing mechanical system and movement of the outer housing element in one direction along the mating axis moves the coupling element in an opposite direction relative to the inner housing element, the coupling element has a ball locking element;
• and
• a second connector matable with the connector along the mating axis, the second connector including a plug received in and coupled with the coupling element, the coupling element receives and couples with the plug in the hollow, a ball of the ball locking element is received in a mating notch of the plug.
