Abstract
Cable seal systems used with connectors comprise a housing having an inside passage for placement of a cable therein, wherein the passage includes a recessed opening extending axially a distance from a housing open end. A seal member is disposed within the recessed opening and comprises an elastomeric seal element having an inside diameter extending around a cable outside surface and an outside diameter extending around an inside surface of the recessed opening. The inside and outside diameters may have a surface feature to provide a leak-tight seal the respective cable and recessed opening. The seal member includes rigid guide elements that are connected with opposed axial surfaces of the seal element. A cover is connected to the housing open axially fixing placement of the member between the cover and housing, wherein the cover includes an opening to accommodate passage of the cable into the housing.
