Abstract
An electrical connector housing comprises substantially identically-shaped housing members of dielectric material hingedly connected together along straight sides. Each housing member includes a hollow body section having a generally triangular configuration. Spaced projections are located in the body sections and include arcuate recesses to accommodate a T-shaped coaxial connector and maintain the connector in position when the body sections are in a closed position to encompass the connector. Semicircular sections extend outwardly from respective sides of the body sections and form tubular members to cover parts of the connector, the semicircular sections including part-conical sections that can be trimmed to form an opening having a diameter to accommodate a coaxial cable connected to the connector. Part-tubular sections extend outwardly from the bottom of the body sections and form a tubular member to cover another part of the connector. Flexible latch members on one of the body sections latchably engage latching sections on the other of the body sections to latch the body sections together covering the connector.
