Unlocking tool for male connector

A tool for disengaging a plug connector mated with a corresponding receptacle connector, the tool comprising:

• a housing having a front, a back and first and second side surfaces formed there between that combine to form a longitudinally extending cavity, the cavity having an opening at a first end of the housing;
• a first pair of openings that extend through the first side surface and a second pair of openings that extend through the second side surface, wherein the first and second pairs of openings mirror each other and each include a first opening near the first end and a second opening spaced apart from the first opening towards a second end of the housing, opposite the first end;
• a first wire form module having a first end positioned within the cavity, a u-shaped portion that extends out of the cavity between the first and second openings on the first side surface, and a second end that extends into the first opening on the first side surface;
• and
• a second wire form module having a first end positioned within the cavity, a u-shaped portion that extends out of the cavity between the first and second openings on the second side surface, and a second end that extends into the first opening on the second side surface;
• wherein a force can be asserted on the u-shaped portion of each of the first and second wire form modules to press the second end of each wire module into the cavity.
