Connector for twin axial cable

An electrical connector for terminating flat multiconductor shielded cable having a drain wire and comprising a metal sleeve having spring contact fingers extending from a forward mating end, a locking cap rotatably mounted on the sleeve to extend from the mating end surrounding the spring contact fingers, a generally cylindrical, insulating, terminal-locating block receivable as a close fit within the sleeve to locate terminals projecting from the mating end within and isolated from the spring contact fingers and a retention bush attachable to the rear end of the sleeve to retain the terminal-locating block in the sleeve, the block being bipartite, each part being generally hemicylindrical and being formed with terminal-receiving recesses at a mating end communicating with a cable-receiving recess at a rear end across which extends a cable-clamping means, a drain wire-receiving passageway extending radially through each part in communication with the cable receiving recess, whereby the drain wire may be terminated to the metal sleeve.
