ABSTRACT:
Connector assemblies, combinations and methods for use in wiring/cabling applications are disclosed. Connector assemblies include openings that facilitate interaction between plugs and cables, particularly foil-shielded twisted pair (FTP) cables. Connector assembly sub-components and connector sub-assemblies are also disclosed. Connector assemblies and sub-assemblies include securely joined sub-components. Sub-components are secured to one another through the use of deflectable latching members of one sub-component engaging corresponding latching slots of another sub-component. Sub-components and sub-assemblies are secured to one another through the use of a cam nut engaged into a slot of a sub-component. Connector assemblies, combinations and methods including a cylindrical contact capable of engaging an FTP cable, drain wire and metal foil or sheath through the application of a cam nut are also disclosed.
