Abstract

An inverted strain relief for receiving a coaxial cable has a housing with a bore therethrough defining first and second apertures in opposing surfaces of the housing. The bore surface is defined by at least a first radius scribing an arc from the perimeter of the first aperture to the second aperture. A smaller second radius scribes an arc tangential to the arc of the first radius over a portion of the exterior surface of the housing. Alternately, the first and second radii may define the surface of the bore with the second radius extending over a portion of the exterior surface of the housing. The bore in the housing is definable by an additional aperture formed adjacent to the first aperture. The surface of the bore is defined by at least the first radius extending from the perimeters of the adjacent apertures.
