Abstract: A waterproof electrical connector includes a connector body and a waterproof cap. The connector body includes a mating island surrounded by a ring groove. The mating island defines a mating face and plural passageways. The passageways receive conductive terminals and penetrate through the mating face. A soft cushion is set inside the waterproof cap. The connector body includes a collar portion. The collar portion is higher than the mating face and forms an entrance cavity around the ring groove. When the cap covers the connector body, the soft cushion penetrates into the entrance cavity to press and seal the mating face.
