Zusammenfassung:A connector assembly (100) includes a connector body (104), a flexible elongate conductor (102), such as an electrical cable, that is terminated within the connector body (104), and a strain relief device (112) attached to the connector body (104). The strain relief device (112) has a clamping collar (114) configured to surround a portion of the conductor (102). The clamping collar (114) comprises a first half ring (116) and a second half ring (118), each having first ends (120) that are separable to allow the strain relief device (112) to be fitted over the conductor (102). The first and second half rings (116, 118) each have second ends (122) joined by a hinge feature (124). The clamping collar (114) further includes means for limiting rotation of the first and second half rings (116, 118) about the hinge (124), such as a first arm (128) extending from the first half ring (116) and a second arm (130) extending from the second half ring (118). The first arm (128) is configured to contact the second arm (130), thereby limiting the rotation.
