Strain Relief and Cable Protection

The integrated strain relief design combines with the snagless boot to provide dual-layer protection against cable stress and connector damage. The molded boot transitions smoothly into the cable jacket, preventing sharp bends while maintaining proper cable geometry. This construction ensures reliable performance even in tight installation spaces where cable management is crucial.

Technical Specifications

  • Molded strain relief prevents cable separation
  • PVC jacket with bend radius protection
  • Snagless design for high-density environments

Applications

  • Under-desk cable routing
  • Rack-mounted equipment connections
  • Cable management system integration
