An electrical connector adapted to be electrically connected with a cable includes a fixing assembly, an insulation body, and a conductive terminal overmolded in the insulation body. The fixing assembly includes a receiving portion extending in an axial direction of the electrical connector. An end of the cable is inserted into the receiving portion from a first end of the receiving portion. The insulation body extends from a second end of the receiving portion. The conductive terminal includes a mounting portion mounted in the insulation body and a contact portion extending out of the insulation body. The mounting portion is electrically connected with a conductor of the cable by a bolt member.

The disclosure provides an insulator for an end of a cable, the insulator having a longitudinal body in which a central channel is provided, the insulator including a connector system arranged in the central channel, the system comprising a connection pin for receiving an end segment of the cable, the pin being shaped so as to present an inside surface that is serrated.

Systems, devices, and methods including: a cable; a housing having a tapered exit hole connected to an internal volume; a tapered seal having a tapered outer surface and an inner aperture, where the inner aperture of the tapered seal receives the cable; an encapsulant disposed in the internal volume and about one or more wires of the cable; and a compression cap placed over the tapered seal and about a flange of the housing to compress the tapered seal into the tapered exit hole; where compression from the compression cap forces the encapsulant up inside the cable and around the one or more wires of the cable, and where curing of the encapsulant seals the cable from moisture incursion.

A communication cable is provided with a communication line, a terminal portion connected to an end part of the communication line, a housing for accommodating the terminal portion, a waterproof rubber plug and a holder. The rubber plug is held in close contact with an outer periphery of the communication line and partially accommodated in the housing. The holder is mounted on the housing to hold the rubber plug. The rubber plug includes a close-contact portion and an outer side portion located behind the close-contact portion and outside the housing. The close-contact portion is located behind the terminal portion and held in close contact with the outer periphery of the communication line and an inner surface of the housing. The holder covers an outer peripheral surface of the outer side portion over an entire periphery. The holder is divided into a first member and a second member.

A connector-attached communication cable for use in communications at 100 Mbps or above is provided with: a first terminal; a connector member made of resin accommodating the first terminal; a conductor electrically connected to the first terminal; and a communication cable having an insulating layer covering an outer periphery of the conductor. The connector member is provided with a clamp portion protruding from an inner peripheral surface of the connector member and biting into the insulating layer.

Method for crimping a cable terminal onto an electric cable includes providing an electric cable having an outer insulation sheath and at least one conductive strand with a sheathed portion, and providing a terminal having shrink wings and provide a gasket having a sealing portion and a shrink portion. The method also includes stripping the electrical cable so that a stripped portion is formed, positioning the shrinkage portion of the joint so that it directly overlaps the stripped portion of the cable without the shrinkage portion overlapping the sheathed portion of the cable, and fully crimping the shrink wings onto the shrink portion of the joint without the shrink wings covering the sheathed portion of the cable.

A waterproof connector that is easy to design and manufacture and that can provide sufficiently close contact with respect to a through hole including a tapered opening is provided. A sealing member that provides waterproofness of the waterproof connector includes an inner tube portion and an outer tube portion, and the connector body includes a holding projection. The holding projection is configured to be inserted between the inner tube portion and the outer tube portion from a rear side in an insertion direction and configured to push the outer tube portion against an inner circumferential face of the tapered opening when the sealing member is received between the outer circumferential face of the connector body and the inner circumferential face of the tapered opening.

A cable sealing plug includes a cable pass through opening extending through the cable sealing plug in an axial direction, a compression seal extending around the cable pass through opening, and a locking part having a locking system. The compression seal is transferable to a compressed state in which an inner diameter of the compression seal is smaller than a predetermined cable diameter of an electric cable extending through the cable pass through opening. The locking part and the compression seal are formed as a unitary component.

A supporting element for positioning a cable in a hole includes a support part, a holder part joined together with the support part, and a cable opening extending through the support part and the holder part. The support part and the holder part are made from different materials. The cable opening receives the cable. The holder part has a retention element securing the supporting element within the hole.

A rotatable interface assembly for an electrical connector, an electrical connector, a connector system, and a method for coupling the system is presented herein. The rotatable interface assembly includes a connector component, having an electrical contact for electrically connecting electrical elements via a corresponding counter connector. The rotatable interface assembly further includes a base part and a rotatable part. The base part at least partially houses the connector component and has a securing means for being secured to a fixed counterpart. The rotatable part being configured to receive the corresponding counter connector at least partially under a specific angular orientation. The rotatable part is arranged on the base part, so as to be rotatable around a rotational axis relative to the base part. The rotatable part can be rotated around the rotational axis in a desired angular orientation that matches an orientation of a corresponding counter connector, to allow to receive the corresponding counter connector under different angular orientations, relative to the base part.
