Abstract

A connector assembly includes a housing, a grommet, and a cable organizer. The housing includes an interior chamber. The grommet is disposed in the interior chamber of the housing and extends between a forward end and an opposite exit end. The grommet includes openings extending through the grommet with insulated conductors extending through the openings and joined with contacts such that the contacts project from the forward end. The cable organizer is disposed proximate to the grommet and includes channels extending through the cable organizer with the cables extending through the channels. The cable organizer limits bending by the cables at the exit end of the grommet.
