The present invention provides an electrical connector assembly and a method of mating the same. The electrical connector assembly includes a panel sub-assembly (22) which mates to at least one electrical connector body (32). Preferably two cam leveraging devices (38,40) which rotate in opposing directions are mounted rotatably to the panel sub-assembly (22) for sliding engagement of respective cam studs (84,86,88,90) engaged rigidly to the electrical connector body (32). Opposing rotations of the cam leveraging devices (38,40) along respective and parallel rotation axes (42,44) causes the panel sub-assembly (22) to move linearly along a mating axis (36) disposed orthogonally to the rotation axes (42,44) and toward the electrical connector body (32) to a staged position. During linear panel sub-assembly movement from the disconnected position to the staged position, the cam studs (84,86,88,90) slide against a first portion (104) of a track (82) carried by respective cam levers (38,40) and which generally spirals radially inward toward the rotation axis. Reversing rotation of both cam leveraging devices (38,40) causes the panel sub-assembly (22) to continue linear movement toward the electrical connector body (32) from the staged position and to a mated position. During linear panel sub-assembly movement from the staged position to the mated position, the cam stud (84,86,88,90) lifts off of the first portion, and is caught by and slides along a second portion (118) of the track to a mated end (122).
