Cable assembly

A cable assembly comprising:

• a connector including a shell, a contact housing, and multiple finger clips, the shell having a mating end and a cable end opposite the mating end, the shell defining a chamber extending through the shell between the mating and cable ends, the contact housing held in the chamber of the shell and extending between a front end and a rear end, the contact housing defining contact cavities extending through the contact housing between the front and rear ends, the finger clips held in the contact cavities of the contact housing, the finger clips having deflectable latches, the contact cavities each defining a notch extending outward from a perimeter of the contact cavity;
• and
• multiple electrical contacts removably received in the contact cavities through the rear end of the contact housing, the electrical contacts having mating segments disposed at least proximate to the front end of the contact housing for compliant mating with corresponding mating contacts of a mating connector, the electrical contacts including rear-facing retention shoulders that engage the deflectable latches of the finger clips in the corresponding contact cavities to removably secure the electrical contacts in the contact cavities,
• wherein the rear-facing shoulder of each electrical contact extends along less than an entirety of a perimeter of the electrical contact, the electrical contacts each including a protrusion extending radially outward from the electrical contact at a location along the perimeter of the electrical contact that is angularly spaced apart from the rear-facing shoulder, the protrusion configured to be received in the notch of the corresponding contact cavity as the electrical contact is received in the contact cavity to ensure that the rear-facing shoulder of the electrical contact is angularly aligned with the deflectable latch of the finger clip in the contact cavity.
