ABSTRACT:
A marine acoustical streamer cable having plural sections connected serially together with the streamer sections having connector couplers at opposite ends thereof adapted to be secured in mated relation without rotation to companion connector couplers of the same construction at the ends of adjacent streamer sections, each coupler comprising an axially elongated coupler body having a fully cylindrical anchoring head portion at one end and an axially elongated half cylindrical segment portion extending integrally from the anchoring head portion. The half cylindrical segment portions of the companion couplers when secured in mating relation collectively form a cylinder of the diameter of the streamer jacket. Insulator core assemblies are removably located in the coupler bodies having multiterminal electrical pin and socket type plug panels mated together and supported in floating relation relative to the coupler body so that deformation of the stress carrying coupler body is not transmitted to its associated electrical plug panel. Locking rings adjacent the ends of the half cylindrical segment portions secure the coupler bodies together with their half cylindrical segment portions mated together.
