Abstract: The invention refers to a kink protection for prefabricated cables having first and second sleeves which fit around part of the cable or a plug connector adapted to be assembled in different relative positions. Each of the two sleeves is designed in general as a rectilinear tube section with a longitudinal axis. One end of the first sleeve has two integrally formed projections in the form of two regular octagons having the same spanner width, which are arranged on both sides of the longitudinal axis and the rotational axes of symmetry of which coincide and perpendicularly intersect the longitudinal axis. One end of the second sleeve has four elongated extensions which are distributed in a rotationally symmetrical manner about the longitudinal axis, each extending parallel to the longitudinal axis. Two mutually adjacent extensions form a spanner jaw having a jaw width corresponding to the spanner width of the octagon.

Abstract: A plug for a data cable, has a conventional front plug element with a latching tongue, a plug element with a front sub-body which is attached to the plug element at the front end of the data cable in a tension-resistant manner to provide a high tensile strength, a rear sub-body, a forward-facing latching tongue protection element and a flexible kink protection element. An angularly curved actuating lever pushes onto the latching tongue and is guided at the other end inside an actuating lever guide, wherein, the plug is connected, an actuation side of the actuating lever lies on a front area of the latching tongue protection element, and wherein, pulling out at an area of the rear sub-body, the actuating lever is actuated, creating pressure on the latching tongue and releasing the lock connection, so that the data cable plug can be pulled out in an unlocked state.
