Abstract

A connector for a cable with a plurality of conductors and a common shielding comprises a housing of insulating material with contacts to be connected with the conductors, and a metal hood. The housing is at least partially accommodated in the hood. The shielding of the cable can be connected to the hood and the metal hood is provided with a wall with a passage for the cable. This wall of the hood comprises an upright collar joining the passage and having a conical outer wall. A ring with a correspondingly conical inner wall can be attached on this wall of the hood while clamping the shielding of the cable between the conical outer wall of the collar and the conical inner wall of the ring.
