Abstract
An electrical connector includes a cable having a shield, a shell and an attachment ring for attaching the shield to the fitting. The shell extends between a mating end and a cable end. The shell has a fitting at the cable end. The shell has a cavity receiving an end of the cable through the fitting. The attachment ring is received inside the shield and the fitting. The attachment ring presses the shield outward against an inner surface of the fitting. The shield may be positioned radially inside of the fitting and the attachment ring may be positioned radially inside of the shield. A radially outer edge of the attachment ring may impart an outward radial load onto the shield.
