Abstract:
A connector assembly (24) for terminating a cable (102) includes a two-piece housing (80, 98) having therein a dual diameter strain relief (200, 202, 159) incorporated in a cylindrical channel (166). The channel (166) has a smaller diameter portion (200) adjacent the termination of the cable conductors (154) and a larger portion (202) adjacent and axially aligned with the smaller diameter portion (200). Forces on cable (102) are transferred from cable (102) to covers (80, 98) through a cable tie in a recess (212, 220) appropriate for the diameter of the cable.
