In the termination of signal cables with two or more wire pairs, it is customary to effect a clamping of the cable in order to relieve the strain on the wires themselves and the terminal connections. This, however, results in an uncontrollable re-arrangement of the wire pairs with associated interference between them. This is avoided in that the termination or the strain-relieving element is configured with mutually separated lead-in passages for the individual wire pairs, and with associated clamping means for each of the wire pairs led through the passage. There is hereby a well-controlled electrical separation between the wire pairs, and also a mechanical strain relief, i.e. by a primary clamping of the wire pairs themselves. By using a wedge part for insertion into the end of the cable, it can be ensured that the wire pairs extend from the end of the cable in an evenly inclining manner, whereby signal reflections from the area will be minimised.
