Abstract: A connector backshell assembly comprises a first cover, a second cover, a first sidewall block between the first cover and the second cover, and a second sidewall block between the first cover and the second cover, with the second sidewall block spaced apart from and facing the first sidewall block. At least one shield termination structure is located between the first and second covers, with the shield termination structure including a plurality of slots that are substantially parallel to each other. The first and second covers, and the first and second sidewall blocks, define a front opening in communication with the slots. Each of the slots are configured to hold a conductor that extends from a rear portion of the backshell assembly into the front opening for termination connection with an electrical connector. The backshell assembly is electrically conductive and provides a shield to prevent electromagnetic interference with each conductor.

Abstract: Embodiments for an adaptive connector collar are provided. In one embodiment, an adaptive connector collar comprises: a cylindrical body having an axial through hole from a first end of the cylindrical body to a second end of the cylindrical body; the first end comprising: a countersink into the cylindrical body defining a first aperture of the axial through hole of a first diameter; an internal shoulder within the axial through hole extending from the first aperture to a second diameter; and internal coupling groves extending from a second aperture of the axial through hole at the second end of the cylindrical body to at least part of a distance to the internal shoulder, wherein the second aperture is larger than the first aperture.
