ABSTRACT:
A hand held bar code reader or scanner includes a universal locking cable connector assembly attaching a signal cable to the handle of the scanner. Signals and/or power to and from the scanner are carried by the signal cable. The signal cable is removably connected to a connector recessed in the handle of the scanner. The signal cable includes (i) a connector member attached to a terminal end thereof and engagable with the connector of the scanner handle and (ii) a collar adjacent the connector. A plastic retaining member is positionable over the collar and includes an internal stepped bore forming a collar at one end of the retaining member for engaging the collar portion of the signal cable within the bore. A manually lockable bayonet or threaded portion of the retaining member is formed at an opposite end and cooperates with an internal surface of the scanner for securing the retaining member to the housing. With the retaining member secured to the handle of the scanner, the signal connector is electrically coupled with the connector of the scanner.
