Abstract
The present invention provides a cable connector cover having an access door hingedly mounted to a base. The base enables alignment and connection to a computer adjacent to a PCMCIA port. A top mounting plate overlaps a portion of the computer frame to secure the cable connector cover in place. When the access door is in the open position, a cable can be inserted therein to establish a connection at such PCMCIA port. The access door can then be closed to hold the connector in place. A cable clamp also provides stress relief for the computer cable.
