Abstract
An electrical shield connector configured to be attached to an end of a shielded cable having a conductive wire and a shield conductor longitudinally surrounding the conductive wire. The shield connector includes a connection portion that is configured for connection with a corresponding mating electrical shield connector and a cable attachment portion that is configured to longitudinally receive an end of the shield conductor. The connection portion defines a shroud surrounding an electrical terminal attached to the conductive wire. The cable attachment portion and/or crimp wings projecting therefrom define a projection that is configured to contact and indent the shield conductor, thereby mechanically and electrically connecting the shield connector to the shield conductor. The cable attachment portion may also define a knurled pattern in an interior surface of the cable attachment portion, such as a knurled pattern having a number of rhomboid-shaped indentations.
