Abstract
A connector casing offering advantages in reducing the number of parts, at simplification of assembly and at reorganization and integration of parts management. According to this invention, there is provided a connector casing made of flexible synthetic resin and molded in one piece in rectangular box-like form. The casing has a top and a bottom hinged together at one rear edge thereof by a pair of hinge planes also integral with the casing. A front wall of the top and bottom have mating arched indentations to provide a cable opening when the casing is closed. Snap lock means are provided on the front walls and along each side of the top and bottom. Each side wall has a connector support near the rear. A rectangular opening is provided at the rear between the hinge planes to accommodate connection to a connector held in the casing. The casing will also accept flat cables and will accommodate metal cord holders about the cord.
