Abstract

The invention relates to a connector for a cable having at least one wire and one screening which surrounds the wire, and also a housing in which an insulator with at least one electrical contact and a screening contact which contacts the housing are arranged, the screening contact producing an electrically conductive connection between the housing and the screening of the cable. The screening contact is resilient in the radial and/or axial direction and contacts the inside wall of the housing.
