Abstract
A magnetic adapter for a cable connector includes a main body having an opening, a compression surface exposed within the opening and configured to compress a biasing retention clip of the cable connector, at least one locking surface configured to secure the biasing retention clip in a second non-locking position; and at least one magnet adjacent the opening. When the biasing retention clip is positioned within the opening, the compression surface causes the biasing retention clip to move from a first locking position where the retention clip is in a fully biased position to the second non-locking position where the retention clip is compressed.
