Abstract

A strain relief and pull-strength termination with controlled impedance for a transmission cable has a carrier with a flat portion for accepting one end of the cable and tabs extending from the flat portion. The cable is secured to the flat portion via soldering of the shielding conductor to the flat portion or by glueing. A housing having tabs formed therein receives the carrier. The tabs in the housing are bent down to engage the carrier tabs to provide strain relief and cable-pull strength.
