Zusammenfassung:An electrical connector including a connector housing and a cable clamp for providing strain relief to a cable that includes wires terminated to contacts within the connector housing is disclosed. The cable clamp includes a midpiece, cable retention fingers, and a rotating clamp. The rotating clamp includes cable tightening ramps that have a generally radial wedge shape that apply a force to the cable retention fingers when the rotating clamp is securely assembled to the midpiece, providing strain relief to the cable. The cable retention fingers may be an integral part of the midpiece or may be provided as a part of a separate component.
