Connector for withstanding high pressure

A cable connector comprising a connector shell including a support and an insert, wherein:

• the insert comprises a surface inclined to a cable-to-face direction of the insert so as to re-direct force applied on a face side of the insert sideways toward sides of the connector shell;
• and
• the support comprises a surface inclined to the cable-to-face direction of the connector shell so as to react to the force, pushing back on the insert, thereby exerting a compression force on the insert, wherein said support is a springy support,
• in which the support comprises a plurality of rings with an outer diameter equal to an inner diameter of the connector shell.

• wherein:
• the insert comprises a surface inclined at an angle θ to a cable-to-face direction of the insert;
• and
• the support comprises a first, inner, surface inclined at a same angle θ to the cable-to-face direction of the insert,
• such that when the insert is within the support the inclined surface of the insert and the first, inner, inclined surface of the support are adjacent to each other,
• in which the support comprises a slot in an axial direction, from a front edge of the support toward a back edge of the support.

• and
• the support comprises a first, inner, surface inclined at a same angle θ to the cable-to-face direction of the insert,
• such that when the insert is within the support the inclined surface of the insert and the first, inner, inclined surface of the support are adjacent to each other.

A method of manufacturing a connector comprising:

• providing a connector shell;
• providing an insert;
• providing a springy support;
• inserting the insert into the connector shell through a back opening in the connector shell;
• and
• inserting the support into the connector shell through a back opening in the connector shell, wherein:
• the insert comprises a surface inclined to a cable-to-face direction of the insert so as to re-direct force applied on a face side of the insert sideways toward sides of the connector shell;
• and
• the support comprises a surface inclined to the cable-to-face direction of the connector shell so as to react to the force, pushing back on the insert, thereby exerting a compression force on the insert.
