Abstract

A retention portion configured to enable release of a cable connector from an adapter without manipulation of the retention portion or the connector by a user, includes: a first portion; and a second portion extending from the first portion. The first portion may comprise an adapter engaging portion that may engage a receiving portion of an adapter; the second portion may move a withdrawal resisting portion of a connector out of engagement with the second portion as the withdrawal resisting portion moves in a withdrawal direction relative to the first portion; and the second portion may be configured to permit the connector to be released from the adapter without manipulation of the connector by a user so as to prevent damage to the connector from the connector being pulled out of the adapter in the withdrawal direction by a force exerted on a cable connected to the connector.
