The inner tubular member is receivable between the dielectric and the outer conductor of the cable. The outer tubular member, includes a sidewall having a medial thickness which is different than the thickness of either end and a bore for receiving any in a series of cables having differing diameters. In response to a pre-determined inward deformation of the sidewall of the outer tubular member, and outer conductor and the jacket of any cable selected from the series is gripped between the inner and outer tubular members.
