Abstract
A connector plug is provided for a multi-conductor cable with an axial load transferring non-conducting tensile string. The connector plug includes a casing carrying a number of contact elements attached to conductors of the cable for engaging corresponding contact elements connected to a matching jack, and the tensile string is anchored relative to the casing via an annular element mounted at the end of the cable. A transverse pin is firmly attached to the tensile string of the cable and positively engages the annular element. The annular element has a rim portion with a bigger outer diameter than an outer cross sectional dimension of the cable so as to engage an internal shoulder on the casing and enable transfer of axial load from the tensile string of the cable to the casing and further to a connected matching jack via the transverse pin and the annular element.
