In a connector to be connected to a cable having a core wire, a retainer is fitted into a rear portion of an insulator holding a contact. The core wire is crimped by a wire crimping barrel formed to the contact. The cable is clamped in cooperation with the retainer and the insulator and extracted through the rear portion of the insulator. In addition, the contact has a locking barrel. On the other hand, the retainer includes a locking portion which is engaged with the locking barrel to prevent the contact from being released rearward from the insulator.

Cable connector having a retainer which serves to hold a cable, to protect a connecting portion, and to prevent undesirable releasing of a contact

A connector includes a contact, a housing receiving the contact, and an engaging member engaged in the housing. The housing has a first receiving portion receiving the contact and a second receiving portion receiving the engaging member. The engaging member has an inserting portion for being inserted with the cable and a cable holding portion for holding the cable with being elastically deformed by the second receiving portion when the engaging member is inserted into the second receiving portion.
