Abstract
A bend limiting system (strain relief ()) that may be retrofit onto a cable connector (). The bend limiting system includes a latching ring () configured to fit over the cable connector's mating face so that the bend limiting system may be placed into position after the connector is connected to another device. The bend limiter () includes three sections. These sections include a latching ring () in the front, an elongated cable guide () in the middle and a cable retainer () at the end. The latching ring portion () is of a generally circular shape to engage the mating face of a round complementary connector.
