The present invention relates to a release tab (37) for an electrical connector (1), comprising a body (38) and an unlocking nose (42) for unlatching a latch (13) securing the electrical connector (1) connected with a mating connector (2), as well as to an electrical connector (1) comprising a housing (4), a latch (13) for securing the housing (4) to a mating connector (2), the latch (13) extending from the housing (4), having an opening (19), as well as being transferable to an unlatched position, and a release tab (37) being arranged movable between a released position and an actuated position, and having an unlocking nose (42) extending into the opening (19) to transfer the latch (13) to the unlatched position when moving the release tab (37) from the released position to the actuated position. For providing an improved release tab and an improved electrical connector of a simple and compact design, allowing the connector to be unplugged in high density applications, the unlocking nose (42) is arranged at a cantilever (41) projecting from the body (38), and the release tab (37) of the present invention is arranged at the electrical connector.
