Connector systems having receptacle assembly and plug assembly

A data center connector (DCC) system includes a receptacle connector assembly that includes a receptacle body having a plug receiving end, a panel assertion end and a plug receiving chamber at the plug receiving end that receives a plug body of a plug connector assembly. A receptacle ferrule is located in the receptacle body. The receptacle ferrule is moveable axially within the receptacle body and biased toward the plug receiving end. A plug connector assembly includes a plug body having an insertion end sized to be received within the plug receiving chamber of the receptacle body. A plug ferrule is fixed axially within the plug body that contacts the receptacle ferrule and moves the receptacle ferrule axially with the plug body being inserted within the plug receiving chamber of the receptacle body.
