ABSTRACT:
A cable clamp particularly adapted for use with ribbon-type connectors is readily mounted on a connector end by means of a clamp anchor portion connected to a cable-supporting base having a projecting rib. Integral opposed side walls are adapted to move inwardly relative to the base and clampingly urge a cable, containing wires to be terminated in the connector, against such base over the projecting rib which extends transversely to the cable axis. Each side wall includes laterally extending ear portions for urging engaged cable portions downwardly on either side of the base rib so as to deform the cable over the rib and assure a secure cable-clamp engagement. Such engagement enables the cable and the individual wires to resist movement relative to the clamp upon the exertion of axial forces thereon, thereby functioning as an efficient strain relief preventing disruption of terminations of the wire conductors within the connector.
