A connector for a cable having an inner element. The connector includes a support member having a cable-receiving opening at one end thereof. The support member has a passageway extending therethrough which communicates with the cable-receiving opening. The connector also includes a terminating member disposed within the passageway in the support member. The terminating member has an inner element-receiving opening at one end thereof which communicates with the cable-receiving opening. The connector further includes means for securing the inner element within the inner element-receiving opening in the terminating member. The securing means is adapted to freely admit the inner element into the inner element-receiving opening upon initial insertion of the cable into the cable-receiving opening in the support member. Additionally, the securing means is responsive to further insertion of the cable into the cable-receiving opening to secure the inner element within the inner element-receiving opening in the terminating member.
