Abstract: A connection device comprises first and second connectors. The first connector has a sleeve having axially extending slots at a distal end to define tines yieldable resiliently inward, and a resilient seal encircling the sleeve proximally of the slots. The second connector has a shroud dimensioned to receive the distal end of the first connector sleeve within the shroud and to engage the first connector resilient seal when the sleeve is fully received within the shroud.
