Abstract

A connector backshell assembly configured to interconnect a cable to a connector. The connector backshell assembly has multiple cable portals at exit angles, such as straight, 90 degree, and 45 degree relative to the connector. The connector backshell assembly is separable into two halves to allow easy access to the rear portion of the connector for connecting and servicing the cable/connector interface. Unused cable portals may be sealed with a plug. The connector backshell assembly may be used with various Military specification (Mil Spec) types including M38999, M28840, M28876, M5015, and M64266.
