(57) A connector for retaining a cable end portion having a deformable outer covering
comprises a locking sleeve, and a shell having a bore for receiving the cable and
a plurality of longitudinal slots which define a plurality of angularly separated
and radially deflectable fingers, each finger having V-shaped thread on its inner
surface whereby mounting of the sleeve onto the shell deflects the fingers radially
inward and the thread into gripping relation with the cable covering axial faces of
the thread and radial faces of the fingers, respectively, resisting rotation and axial
movement of the cable in the bore.
