Abstract:
1. A multi-core cable terminating housing comprising: an upper case having a first plurality of grooves extending from a first recess formed in the upper case to a first end face of the upper case; and a lower case having a second plurality of grooves extending from a second recess formed in the lower case to a second end face of the upper case, the lower case being shaped to mate with the upper case, wherein the first recess and the second recess define a cable plenum when the upper case is mated with the lower case, wherein the mating of the upper case with the lower case further defines a cable egress, and joins the first plurality of grooves with the second plurality of grooves to define a plurality of cylindrical collars that open in parallel alignment from the cable plenum toward a front side of the housing opposite the cable egress, for receiving cable terminating connectors, wherein the first end face and the second end face are substantially coplanar when the upper case is mated with the lower case and define the front side of the housing, and wherein an axial length of the collars generally corresponds to an axial length of the cable terminating connectors.
