A termination system in an electrical connector for coupling a coaxial cable to a terminal member. A strain relief component includes a crimpable portion for clamping onto the insulation surrounding the conductor of the coaxial cable and an outwardly projecting portion for capturing the drain wire of the cable. The strain relief component is readily applicable for coupling a generally flat undercarpet coaxial cable in a circular connector. A circular clamp nut holds the strain relief component in the connector with the conductor terminated to the terminal member and the drain wire in engagement with the housing of the connector. An adapter is provided between the strain relief component and the circular clamp nut for adapting the flat configuration of the cable to the circular configuration of the clamp nut and connector.
