A strain relief assembly is provided for a bundle of cables surrounded by an electrically conductive sleeve. The strain relief assembly can include a ferrule and at least one retention member. The cables extend through the ferrule, and the sleeve extends over the ferrule, so as to be captured between the ferrule and the retention member.

A connection arrangement has a crimp connector and a wire fixed in place in it, the crimp connector having a first and a second clamping plate, both single pieces, which in an assembled state clamp the wire between them and fix the wire in place with a tensile strength force acting in a longitudinally axial direction. Inner surfaces of the first and second clamping plate face one another at least in the assembled state are executed in a first form in the preassembled state. The first and second clamping plate fit tightly with one another and are deformed in the assembled state with a tool into a second form differing from the first that the wire, due to the deformation of the first and second clamping plates, forms at least one wave. A related valve and a related method are also disclosed.

An electrical connector includes a contact pin to be connected to a core wire of a coaxial cable, an insulating housing for holding the contact pin therein, a cylindrical outer contact covering the housing and a crimping member for attaching the outer contact to the coaxial cable. A base end portion of the outer contact is located between an inner insulator layer and an outer conductor layer of the coaxial cable. The outer contact is attached to the coaxial cable by crimping the crimping member onto the outer conductor layer of the coaxial cable located on the base end portion of the outer contact.

An electrical connector including: a terminal body; an insulator accommodated within a receptacle of the terminal body, the insulator having at least one cavity adapted for holding a terminal connected to a wire of a cable; a metal ferrule accommodated within the receptacle of the terminal body; wherein the metal ferrule has a crimp portion adapted to be crimped onto the cable; wherein the metal ferrule is form-fittingly connected to the terminal body; and wherein the metal ferrule has a sleeve like holding portion centering the ferrule within the receptacle.

A cable assembly comprises a cable and a conductive member. The cable extends in a longitudinal direction. The cable has a first location and a second location in the longitudinal direction. The cable comprises a conductive portion and an outer cover. The outer cover covers the conductive portion. The conductive member is attached with the cable. The conductive member has a first portion, a second portion and a planar portion. The first portion is positioned at the first location in the longitudinal direction. The first portion is crimped to the outer cover. The second portion is positioned at the second location in the longitudinal direction. The second portion is crimped to the conductive portion. The planar portion extends from the first location to the second location in the longitudinal direction.

A cable assembly comprising a termination with at least one conductive, compressible member and a conductive ground shield. The conductive, compressible member may be held within a connector module forming the termination such that the conductive compressive member is pressed against, and therefore makes electrical contact with, both an outer conductive layer of the cable and ground structures within the connector module. In some embodiments, these connections may be formed using a conductive, compressible member with an opening configured to receive the end of the cable therethrough. The conductive ground shield may be configured to compress the conductive, compressible member, and to cause the conductive, compressible member to electrically contact the cable's conductive layer. The conductive, compressible member may be formed from a compressible material and may comprise a plurality of conductive particulates configured to provide electrically conductive paths.

In a plug connector, a ground contact conductor includes: a fitting portion to fit to a ground contact conductor of a mate connector; and a clamp portion to hold a second exposing portion of a coaxial cable (a portion of a terminal portion of the coaxial cable where a part of an insulating sheath has been removed) to contact a shield exposed at the second exposing portion, without the ground contact conductor overlapping an outer peripheral surface of the insulating sheath. The clamp portion is located at an end of the ground contact conductor farthest from the fitting portion. The second exposing portion is adjacent to a first exposing portion formed at the terminal portion where a signal line is exposed.

A connector assembly according to the present invention includes a receptacle connector; and a plug connector to be slidably inserted into the receptacle connector, wherein the plug connector includes a signal pin having one side in electrical contact with a signal line of a cable, a shield can formed to enclose the signal pin so that a lower surface of the other side of the signal pin is exposed and to be electrically spaced apart from the signal pin, a first insulating member coupled to the signal pin to insulate between the signal pin and the shield can, and a plug shell enclosing the shield can so as to expose the lower surface of the other side of the signal pin.

Embodiments of a prefabricated electric cable may have an outer conductor shield and a support sleeve which is fastened to the outer conductor shield. The support sleeve has a cable-side end and a portion of the support sleeve tapers in an axial direction oriented toward the cable-side end.
