摘要

A cable connector is disclosed for hybrid cables having optical fibers, power lines, and audio lines. In one embodiment, the cable connector includes male and female portions having corresponding male and female contact pins for the power and audio lines, and forwardly-biased ferrules housing the optical fibers. All the lines and optical fibers are secured in an insulator device by an insulator lock that lockably engages a receptacle of the insulator device. Each hybrid cable is further secured and sealed with a grip member and a crimp ring. The cable connector of the present invention allows for field serviceability without the use of potting compounds.
