The invention relates to a cable connector with a housing including a base extending along a longitudinal axis of the cable connector. The base includes a cable entry portion for accommodating a ferrule system of a cable and a further portion extending from said cable entry portion along said longitudinal axis. The further portion includes one or more mounting structures. The base also includes a housing part with one or more mounting elements adapted to cooperate with said mounting structures to mount the housing part to the base to complete said housing at said further portion. The mounting structures and mounting elements are structured such that said housing part is forced towards said base when said housing part is moved along said longitudinal axis from a mounting position to a mounted position. Accordingly a tight fitting and easily assembled cable connector is obtained.

Cable connector

The invention relates to a cable connector including a housing with a base substantially extending between a front side and a rear side of said connector and a first housing part mountable to said base such that said first housing part and a first portion of said base determine a cable passage configured to accommodate a ferrule arrangement of a cable. The cable passage includes at least one recessed portion configured to receive a corresponding protrusion of said ferrule arrangement or vice versa Accordingly a high density cable connector is obtained with improved cable relief performance.
