Abstract

A connector assembly suitable for use with armored cables. The connector assembly includes a sleeve that is received over and connected to an end of an armored cable. The conductors of the armored cable are connected to a contact holder that is received within the sleeve. A jacket is molded over the sleeve and a portion of the armored cable. A slip ring placed around the sleeve between the molded jacket and a flange of the sleeve secures a coupling nut thereover. The coupling nut secures mating portions of the connector assembly to one another so as to create a conductive pathway across the connector assembly.
