Abstract
An apparatus includes a conductor configured to transport a signal, a male connector surrounding at least a portion of the conductor, and a load ring configured to secure the conductor. The apparatus also includes a female connector including an annular end forming a cavity configured to receive the load ring in a first portion of the cavity and at least a portion of the male connector in a second portion of the cavity. Sidewalls of the first portion of the cavity are configured to create a compressive radial force on an outer surface of the load ring to reduce hoop stress resulting from radially-offset longitudinal forces on the load ring.
