  • an approximately bow-shaped locking element is arranged, which is guided in the rear, rear region of the plug housing on the inside between two housing halves.
  • the locking element has two locking arms extending in the longitudinal direction in the side walls, on each of which a locking element is arranged at the end which projects laterally beyond the locking arm.
  • the locking element is formed in the SFP connector types on an upper side of the connector housing.
  • the locking element is designed overall in the manner of a rocker, on which the locking element is formed in the front end.
  • an actuating element is arranged regularly, which manually transferred by pulling or turning the locking element from a locked to an unlocked position.
  • a pull tab is formed in each case, which is pulled in the longitudinal direction of the plug for unlocking.
  • plugs are used in particular for connecting data cables in computer networks to devices or distributors.
  • the installation space is often limited and the individual connectors are arranged very close together.
  • the plugs have suitable electronics, which are usually integrated on a printed circuit board.
  • the circuit board with corresponding contacts at the same time also forms a contact tongue, which is freely accessible at the front end of the plug housing, and via which a plug contact with the respective component is formed.
  • the plugs are generally designed for repeated end and locking.
  • the present invention seeks to provide such a connector element for a permanently reliable, reversible locking and unlocking.
  • the plug element has a locking mechanism for forming a lockable plug connection with a counterpart, wherein it has a longitudinally extending plug housing with two housing parts, namely an upper part and a lower part for this purpose.
  • the plug housing extends from a rear end wall with a cable opening for a cable to be connected to a front end side with an opening for a plug-in contact element.

  • a one-piece design in particular made of plastic, in which therefore the pull tab and the reaching into the housing unlocking element are integrally formed of plastic, there is the problem of tearing within the housing, so that a release is impossible.
