Abstract
A strain relief member (22) adapted for securing a multi-conductor cable (28) to a connector (20) to provide strain relief to terminations of the conductors (26) of the multi-conductor cable (28) to respective contacts (24) in the connector (20) when the strain relief is secured to the connector. The strain relief member (22) has a U-shaped portion (34) having a bight (36) and two legs (38,40) extending therefrom. The legs (38,40) have securing means (44) thereon adapted to secure the strain relief member (22) to the connector (20). The bight (36) has a tab (58) extending therefrom having an insulation support ferrule (56) integral therewith. The ferrule (56) is adapted to be crimped about the cable (28) such that when the connector (20) is terminated to the cable (28) and the strain relief member (22) is secured to the connector (20) with the ferrule (56) crimped about the cable (28), forces transmitted along the cable (28) are transferred to the connector (20) through the strain relief member (22) and are thereby prevented from being transmitted to the conductor-to-contact terminations.
