Abstract

A cable connector assembly (1) includes a first and a second cover-halves (3, 4) joined together to define a front and a second end, an insulative housing (20) retained in the front end of the first and the second cover-halves, a number of contacts (22) retained in the insulative housing, a cable (7) electrically connected with the contacts, a fastening member (5) and a pull tab (8). A first passage (45) extends through the front and the rear ends. The fastening member is movably and rotatably received in the first passage and includes a medial portion (50), a threaded portion (52) extending from the medial portion, and an operating portion (54) extending from the medial portion opposite to the threaded portion. The pull tab is movably mounted to the rear end of the cover-halves and is secured to the fastening member for separating the cable connector assembly from the complementary connector.
