Abstract
A termination between a submarine coaxial cable and a submerged repeater housing. It employs an anchor assembly for transferring the load in the cable core to the repeater housing, and a protective boot assembly for surrounding and supporting the cable where it extends away from the anchor assembly. The boot assembly is rigidly connectible to the housing. Movement of the cable within the boot tube is permitted to a greater extent near the free end of the boot assembly than near the housing, by means of a flexible tube and bellmouth assembly, in order to cater for the stresses associated with the cable handling and recovery.
