The TE Connectivity 208945-5 is a cable clamp for the CPC (Circular Plastic Connector) metal-shell series, size 14. It secures the cable bundle at the rear of the connector backshell, providing strain relief and a 180° straight cable exit. The clamp is machined from zinc alloy with a nickel plating, giving it corrosion resistance in industrial and harsh-environment harness assemblies. It accepts cable diameters from 0.225" to 0.562" (5.72 mm to 14.27 mm) and threads onto the connector using a 7/8-20 UNEF thread, which is the standard thread for TE CPC size 14 metal-shell inserts.
Thread and Cable Fit
The 7/8-20 UNEF thread is a fine-pitch thread (20 threads per inch) that mates directly with the threaded backshell of TE CPC size 14 connectors. The cable opening range — 0.225" to 0.562" — covers a wide span of cable diameters, from a thin multi-conductor signal cable up to a thicker power or hybrid bundle. The clamp screws are included in the package (five pieces total: three cable clamp pieces and two screws), so no additional hardware is needed for installation.
