Abstract

An end closure for a cable having a core, at least two electrical cable wires and at least one optical transmission element, the core is surrounded by a metal wire reinforcement. On the end of the electrical cable wires an electrically suitable connection set is mounted, which at least partially protrudes out of a pipe. A connection unit is mounted on the end of the optical transmission element, which also partially protrudes from the pipe. The connection unit has a pot shaped tension element mounted tension proof on the free end of the pipe and surrounds, moisture tight and pressure tight, the part of the connection set and the connection unit that protrudes out of the pipe.
