ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector provides for termination of shielded electrical cable. The connector includes an electrically insulative housing supporting plural electrical contacts. A conductive contact shield is positioned within the housing for electrically shielding the contacts. The housing further includes a strain relief device operable to frictionally secure the cable to the housing. The ground clip is positioned within the strain relief device for engagement with the cable shield upon cable termination. The ground clip is also resiliently engageable with the contact shield upon insertion of the contact shield into the housing. The engagement of the contact shield with the ground clip establishes electrical continuity between the cable shield and the contact shield.
