ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector includes a housing including a rear end. The housing has a cable bore configured to receive a cable, and the housing has an outer pocket positioned radially outward from, and surrounding portions of, the cable bore. A strain relief element is coupled to the housing. The strain relief element includes an end wall having an opening therein. The strain relief element has a flexible beam extending axially inward from the end wall proximate to the opening that is configured to engage the cable. The strain relief element also has a mounting tab extending axially inward from the end wall that is received in the outer pocket and that engages the housing to secure the strain relief element to the housing.
