A lead connector assembly having an open and a closed end, and one or more electrically conducting contact rings spaced apart by at least one electrically insulating ring forming a ring stack. Each contact ring includes an electrically conducting pin protruding from the respective contact ring, and an electrically insulating end ring accommodated at the end of the ring stack at the open end. The inner surfaces of: the one or more contact rings the at least one insulating ring and the end ring, define a lead aperture starting at the open end. Connector housing parts enclose the contact rings, the at least one insulating ring and the end ring, and form an outer surface and are joined such that a hermetic seal is provided between the lead aperture and the outer surface. The electrically conducting pin of each contact ring projects through the joined connector housing parts and from the outer surface.
