Abstract

A cover and strain relief assembly is disclosed for use with known elongated electrical connectors for providing either a 90.degree. or 180.degree. cable exit from the connector. The subject cover assembly has three pieces including a yoke that engages a mounting flange of the connector and a pair of mating panels which snap together engaging both the yoke and the cable. The mating panels can be reversibly connected, with respect to the manner in which they engage the yoke to yield a 90.degree. or a 180.degree. cable exit from the connector. The panels can further be provided with adjustable cable strain relief means.
