A float adapter for an electrical connector that includes a conductive shell and an insulator received in the conductive shell. The insulator includes an engagement end, an interface end that is opposite the engagement end, and a reduced diameter middle portion therebetween. The insulator includes an inner bore that extends through the engagement end, the interface end, and the reduced diameter middle portion. The interface end has a lead-in tip portion that extends outside of the first end of the conductive shell. The lead-in tip portion has a tapered outer surface that terminates in an end face surface and a shoulder remote from the end face surface that defines an outer diameter that is larger than the inner diameter of the conductive shell. An inner contact is received in the inner bore of the insulator. The inner contact has socket openings at either end.

1. An electrical connector assembly, comprising: a first connector having at least one contact extending into at least one cavity;a second connector having at least one contact extending into at least one cavity; andat least one float adapter coupling said first and second connectors, said float adapter including: a conductive shell having opposite first and second ends, said first end having an engagement member configured to engage a corresponding engagement member in said cavity of said first connector,an insulator received in said conductive shell, said insulator including an engagement end and an interface end opposite said engagement end, a middle portion between said engagement and interface ends, said middle portion having a diameter that is smaller than a diameter of either said engagement end or said interface end, and an inner bore extending through said engagement and interface ends, and said reduced diameter middle portion, said interface end having a lead-in tip portion extending outside of said first end of said conductive shell, said lead-in tip portion having a shoulder defining an outer diameter that is larger than the inner diameter of said conductive shell, and said reduced diameter middle portion defining an annular space between said insulator and said conductive shell, andan inner contact received in said inner bore of said insulator, said inner contact having first and second contacts at either end thereof for connecting with said contacts of said first and second connectors, respectively;wherein said at least one float adapter provides axial and radial float between said first and second connectors. 2. An electrical connector assembly of claim 1, wherein said engagement member of said conductive shell is one of an annular lip or groove; andsaid engagement member of said cavity of said first connector is one of an annular lip or groove. 3. An electrical connector assembly according to claim 1, wherein each of said contacts of said first and second connectors is either a socket or pin; andeach of said first and second contacts of said at least one float adapter is either a socket or pin. 4. An electrical connector assembly according to claim 1, wherein said interface end of said insulator of at least one float adapter includes a tapered outer surface terminating in an end face surface, said shoulder being remote from said end face surface. 5. An electrical connector assembly according to claim 1, wherein each of said first and second connectors is adapted to connect to a printed circuit board. 6. Method of assembly of a float adapter, comprising the steps of: providing a conductive shell that has first and second ends;providing an insulator, the insulator has an engagement end, an interface end opposite the engagement end, a middle portion therebetween, and an inner bore extending through the engagement end, the interface end, and the middle portion;inserting the insulator into the conductive shell through the first end of the conductive shell such that the engagement end of the insulator expands to engage an inner portion of the conductive shell;providing an inner contact that has first and second contact at either end thereof; andinserting the inner contact through the second end of the conductive body shell and into the inner bore of the insulator. 7. A method of claim 6, wherein the interface end having a lead-in tip portion extending outside of the first end of the conductive shell, the lead-in tip portion has a tapered outer surface terminating in an end face surface and a shoulder remote from the end face surface defining an outer diameter that is larger than the inner diameter of the conductive shell. 8. A method of claim 6, wherein the insulator is inserted into the conductive shell until an engagement member of the insulator engages a corresponding engagement member of the conductive shell. 9. A method of claim 6, wherein the middle portion defines an annular space between the insulator and the conductive shell. 10. A method of claim 6, wherein the engagement end of the insulator includes at least one slot at a the engagement end to expand; andthe inner portion of the conductive shell is an inner flange.
