Abstract

A cable assembly (1) includes an insulative housing (10) with a number of terminals (20) received therein, each terminal (20) including a mating end (21) and a mounting end (23) opposite to the mating end (21), a cable (50) including a number of conductor cores (51) terminated to the corresponding mounting ends (23), an anchoring element (40) reliably assembled to the housing (10), and a cover (60). The cover partially encloses the housing, and engages with the anchoring element for increasing the retaining force between the housing and the cover.
