Cable and cable connection assembly

Abstract

A cable connection assembly ( 100, 200 , or 300 ) for coupling a cable ( 102, 104, 204, 302 , or 304 ) to an apparatus ( 106, 206 , or 306 ). The cable connection assembly includes a collar ( 108, 110, 210, 308 , or 310 ) adapted to sealingly engage the apparatus, the collar having a fastener ( 144 ) for coupling the collar to the cable by rotating the collar into locking engagement with at least a portion of the cable.

1 . A cable connection assembly for a cable comprising:
 (a) a collar including a fastener, wherein the fastener is adapted to be coupled to the cable by rotation of the fastener relative to the cable; and   (b) a sleeve adapted to sealingly engage the collar, thereby defining a cavity in which an end of the cable is adapted to be at least partially disposed within, wherein the collar is adapted to be slid entirely within the sleeve while engaging the sleeve.
