A conductive shielding ring is positioned between the mated connector portions. The shielding ring has a body configured for surrounding flexible tines of the female portion jack and is configured to be captured between the tines and the shroud for providing a grounding path between the male and female portions of the connector. The shielding ring body has an inner surface with a diameter and an outer surface with a diameter and has a taper portion formed on a distal end of the shielding ring body for engaging a surface of the shroud. The shielding ring body has a lip extending radially inwardly at the proximal end for engaging the tines of the female portion when the male and female portions of the connector are mated.
