Abstract: A connector receptacle for insertion in a panel is disclosed. The connector has a threaded portion, and a compression stop. A gasket material is molded on a flange of the body of the receptacle such that at least a portion of the gasket material is compressible between the flange and the panel when the connector is installed. A fluid-tight seal is achieved when a compression stop is in contact with the panel.

Abstract: An illuminated panel-mountable receptacle is disclosed. The receptacle body may be a translucent material and may be captivated to a panel by a front nut and a rear nut. A mounting nut is slotted so that the mounting nut may be threaded onto the rear portion of the receptacle body even when a cable has already been connected thereto. The mounting nut is configured to receive a light guide so that a source of illumination can be provided at a back portion of the receptacle and propagate through the receptacle so as to illuminate the receptacle when viewed by a user.
