The TE Connectivity 1445771-1 is a backshell with an integrated cable clamp, part of the CPC (Circular Plastic Connector) Miniature series. It is designed for use with jacketed cable and mates with CPC Miniature connectors of shell size 8, securing the cable exit at a 90° angle.
Thread Fit and Cable Routing
The 1/2-20 UNF-2A thread is the mechanical interface to the CPC Miniature connector body. This is a standard UNF thread — 1/2-inch nominal diameter, 20 threads per inch, class 2A external fit. The outside diameter of the clamp is 0.709" (18.00 mm), which accommodates the cable OD range typical for shell size 8.
Construction and Sealing
The IP67 rating means the assembly is dust-tight and can withstand temporary immersion in water — but only when the backshell is correctly torqued onto the connector and the cable is properly clamped and sealed. This makes it suitable for industrial environments where washdown or moisture exposure is expected.
