Abstract
A connector device (10) for disposing a detonator (12) in signal transfer relation with a signal-receiving line (30) receives the detonator (12) in a sleeve member (14). A line-engaging member (24) is connected to the sleeve member (14) and cooperates with sleeve member (14) to define a slot (26) therebetween within which the signal-receiving line (30) is disposed. The slot (26) is dimensioned and configured to dispose the signal-receiving line (30) therein in an undulate configuration. The device (10) may be used alone or in conjunction with a tail connector (56) to secure a donor line (74) in signal transfer relation with the input lead (13) of the detonator (12).
