1. A body for a coaxial connector comprising:
a biasing portion having a forward facing body surface relative to a forward direction toward an interface port when a coaxial connector engages the interface port;
wherein the forward facing body surface is configured to exert a biasing force against a rearward facing coupler surface of a coupler portion of the coaxial connector so as to biasingly maintain a ground path between a post portion of the coaxial connector and the coupler portion of the coaxial connector during operation of the coaxial connector, including when the coaxial connector is not fully tightened onto the interface port; and
wherein the biasing portion is configured to deflect in an axial direction based on a configuration of a groove portion of the body.
