ABSTRACT:
A poke-through electrical connector includes an elongate, generally tubular housing member and at least one retaining clip for securing the connector in an interfloor passage. The retaining clip includes a transverse flexure portion and at least one anchor point dimensioned and angled from the flexure portion for substantially radially-directed engagement with the wall of the interfloor passage. Displacement of the anchor point results in a compressive load which causes a bending moment to develop in the transverse flexure portion. The flexure results in application of a reactive retaining force by the anchor point.
