Abstract
A dead end connector for a transmission cable. The connector includes an elongated body and a cable-receiving longitudinal channel formed in the body. A pressure pad is provided with an elongated base portion which is adapted to be aligned with the longitudinal channel of the body. A cross piece is on the side of the base portion opposite to the side adjacent the channel of the body when aligned therewith and the cross piece extends across and outwardly from both sides of the aligned body and pad at an oblique angle with respect thereto. Coupling structure is provided for retaining the pressure pad in overlying aligned position with respect to the channel to hold a portion of a transmission cable therein with the cross piece enabling the provision of a holding pressure along at least a substantial portion of the engagement surface of the pressure pad with the transmission cable.
