Abstract: A cable assembly is provided comprising a collar adjacent to a cable transition member, the cable transition member having a first longitudinal axis x1, the collar having a second longitudinal axis x2. The cable transition member provides for a cable to extend by approximately 90 degrees from the first axis x1 of the cable transition member, a connector body having a non-circular outer diameter, wherein the collar is disposed between the connector body and the cable transition member so that the first axis x1 and the second axis x2 are aligned and the collar secures the cable transition member in a predetermined angular orientation z with respect to the connector body. The angular orientation z of the cable transition member with respect to the connector body is other than 90, 180, 270 or 360 degrees with respect to the first axis x1.
