ABSTRACT:
A gull-wing strain relief (10) for a flat multi-conductor ribbon cable (30) exiting a connector assembly (20). The gull-wing strain relief (10) is mounted directly on the connector assembly (20) and includes lateral flaps (14) which close around the connector assembly (20). The flaps (14) may be interlocked in a fully closed position wherein the ribbon cable (30) exiting the connector assembly (20) is held in compression to thereby protect against strain from twisting or pulling.
