  • Patent number: 4527847
    Abstract: The mounting assembly of the present disclosure finds particular application in shielded electrical cable having connectors at opposite extremities thereof and carrying electrical conductors between spaced-apart equipments having respective mating connectors. In accordance with the disclosure, a mounting assembly is provided which may be disposed at either extremity of the cable, or at both extremities, and which permits the cable connectors to rotate through a prescribed arc about the cable axis. This rotation compensates for the torsional inflexibility of the cable, thereby facilitating the orientation of the mating connectors required for attachment, and electrically linking the equipments.
