Abstract
The present disclosure provides a cable connector assembly that includes a differential pair cable having a pair of conductors secured to contact pads formed on a printed circuit board. A housing and cover are configured to be secured together and include a cavity for receiving the printed circuit board and the cable. A slug is formed around a portion of the cable and is in intimate contact with a shield layer of the cable. Upon assembly of the cover to the housing, the slug is disposed in the pocket with a projection formed on the plug that engages a shoulder in the pocket to maintain a rigid connection between the lug connector housing and the cable and limit the stress that can be transferred to the connection between the conductors of the cable and the printed circuit board.
