Abstract
Abstract A cable connector assembly is provided. It incorporates cavities and contact elements for terminals of wires forming a cable and includes a cavity into which a strain relief rod may be inserted. The rod supports a pair of spaced bosses between which a cable tie can be used to hold the wires and thus translate strain on the wires to the strain relief rod.
