Abstract

A cable bundle connector for simultaneously attaching or detaching a plurality of cables having cable connectors and wires extending therefrom to operational devices, comprising a housing body with two pairs of opposing sides that defame an interior cavity for receiving a plurality of cables for being connected to an operational device. A cable receiver defines a plurality of sleeves, each configured for receiving a cable connector of one of the plurality of cables. One side defines a slot through which a portion of the cable passes into the connector. Fasteners secure the cable receiver to an open end of the housing. The cable connectors being received in the sleeves with the wires extending outwardly of the housing body are readily connected simultaneously to an operational device.
