AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing rubberized bungs used to prevent cable movement in conduits fail to provide consistent positional accuracy and can bond to metal conduits, leading to cable sticking and reduced effectiveness in reducing connector tension, especially under adverse conditions.

Method used

A cable stopper made of high-temperature-resistant plastics like polyamide, polyaryletherketone, or polycarbonate, with a gripping mechanism and snap-together design, fits into a flared conduit end to securely hold the cable without bonding to the conduit, allowing for easy movement and tension relief.

Benefits of technology

The cable stopper maintains cable position and reduces connector tension effectively, preventing cable deformation and signal loss, even under extreme conditions, with easy repositioning and installation options.
