A strain relief assembly is provided for a bundle of cables surrounded by an electrically conductive sleeve. The strain relief assembly can include a ferrule and at least one retention member. The cables extend through the ferrule, and the sleeve extends over the ferrule, so as to be captured between the ferrule and the retention member.

Strain relief assembly for conductive cables

A latch assembly for an electrical connector module is configured to releasably secure an electrically conductive housing to an electrically conductive cage. The electrically conductive housing defines a first end that supports an electrical connector, and a second end opposite the first end. A plurality of electrical cables are mounted to a plurality of electrical contacts of the electrical connector, and the cables can extend out a second end of the electrically conductive housing opposite the first end. The latch assembly is configured to secure the electrically conductive housing to the cage when the electrical connector is mated to a complementary electrical component in the cage. The latch assembly can release the electrically conductive housing from the cage when the electrical connector is to be removed from the complementary electrical component in the cage.

Electrical connector with spring-biased latch

Electrical connectors provide signal connections between electronic devices using electrically-conductive contacts, or electrical contacts. In some applications, a connector including a solid substrate body may facilitate the connection of cables with a complementary connector.
