A cable assembly, comprising: a cable; a connector-body attached to the cable; a cable-seal disposed within the connector-body and surrounding the cable; and a retainer in direct contact with the cable, the connector-body and the cable-seal, wherein the retainer is configured to retain the cable-seal within the connector-body and further configured to attach to the connector-body, the retainer includes a first-half and an opposed second-half identical to the first-half, the first-half configured to mate with the opposed second-half, the first-half and opposed second-half each containing cable-clamps, the cable-clamps longitudinally slideably mounted to a pair of opposed inclined-surfaces located on an inner-surface of the retainer and inclined relative to a longitudinal-axis of the cable, wherein the cable-clamps include inclined-ramps configured to engage the inclined-surfaces, and wherein the inclined-ramps are configured to move along the inclined-surfaces, thereby causing the cable-clamps to impart a radial-force normal to the cable when the retainer is attached to the connector-body, wherein the cable-clamps are configured to be moved from a pre-stage position to a clamped-position when the retainer is attached to the connector-body, wherein the cable-clamps are releasably locked in the pre-stage position by locking-features that project from a top-surface of the inclined-ramps, the locking-features disposed within apertures defined by arms overlaying the inclined-surfaces, the arms project from a back-side of the retainer, the apertures configured to retain the locking-features when the cable-clamps are moved from the pre-stage position to the clamped-position. a cable; a connector-body attached to the cable; a cable-seal disposed within the connector-body and surrounding the cable; and a retainer in direct contact with the cable, the connector-body and the cable-seal, wherein the retainer is configured to retain the cable-seal within the connector-body and further configured to attach to the connector-body, the retainer includes a first-half and an opposed second-half identical to the first-half, the first-half configured to mate with the opposed second-half, the first-half and opposed second-half each containing cable-clamps, the cable-clamps longitudinally slideably mounted to a pair of opposed inclined-surfaces located on an inner-surface of the retainer and inclined relative to a longitudinal-axis of the cable, wherein the cable-clamps include inclined-ramps configured to engage the inclined-surfaces, and wherein the inclined-ramps are configured to move along the inclined-surfaces, thereby causing the cable-clamps to impart a radial-force normal to the cable when the retainer is attached to the connector-body, wherein the cable-clamps are configured to be moved from a pre-stage position to a clamped-position when the retainer is attached to the connector-body, wherein the cable-clamps are releasably locked in the pre-stage position by locking-features that project from a top-surface of the inclined-ramps, the locking-features disposed within apertures defined by arms overlaying the inclined-surfaces, the arms project from a back-side of the retainer, the apertures configured to retain the locking-features when the cable-clamps are moved from the pre-stage position to the clamped-position.
