Connector system with tool-accessible latching mechanism

A connector system, comprising:

• a connector assembly comprising:
• an elongated inner signal contact;
• and
• an insulating element including:
• a first cavity configured to accommodate the inner signal contact,
• a latching element configured to secure the inner signal contact in the first cavity, and
• an elongated second cavity extending in an axial direction and configured to receive a tool for separating the latching element from the inner signal contact, wherein a cross-sectional dimension of the second cavity is adapted so as to allow for a lever movement of the tool, wherein the insulating element defines a pivot bearing for the tool in a vicinity of an entry opening of the second cavity, wherein the pivot bearing comprises two neighboring surface portions, a first surface portion on a left side of the second cavity and a corresponding second surface portion on a right side of the second cavity as viewed in the axial direction, wherein a pivot axis defined by the pivot bearing is perpendicular to the axial direction;
• and
• the tool for separating the latching element from the inner signal contact, wherein the tool has a handle and an insertion portion, wherein the tool further comprises a pivot means formed between the handle and the insertion portion, wherein the pivot means is configured to interact with the pivot bearing defined by the insulating element, wherein the pivot bearing and the pivot means come into contact as soon as an end position of the tool inserted into the second cavity is reached, wherein the pivot means comprises two lateral pins extending in opposite directions from a main body of the tool, wherein the pivot axis is located at an interface between the lateral pins and the first and second surface portions.
