Board mountable coaxial connector

Connector (10) including a connector subassembly (20) with a pair of covers (16) secured thereover extending from a mating face (24) to a cable exit to define a strain relief section (36) extending along a portion of cable (12). A pair of latch members (60) is secured in the connector, each in a respective channel (22) defined in the covers along opposite sides of subassembly (20). Actuating sections (68) protrude rearwardly along strain relief section (36) and are deflectable theretoward during actuation to release latching sections (64) from a mating connector for unmating. Protuberances (72) of the actuating sections (68) are received into recesses (40) of the strain relief section (36) for transmitting rearwardly directed unmating force from the latch members (60) to the strain relief section of the covers (16).
