1. A connector plug comprising:
- an insulating body;
a plurality of contact pins carried by said insulating body, each of said contact pins having a contact portion and a terminal portion extending respectively from front and rear ends of said insulating body;
a cylindrical metal cover compdrising a rolled resilient metal sheet the opposite edges of which are disposed closely adjacent to each other, said cylindrical metal cover having a semi-cylindrical rear portion defining a side opening extending rearwardly to merge into a rear opening of said cylindrical metal cover, said insulating body being disposed in said cylindrical metal cover with said contact pins extending through said insulating body inside said cylindrical metal cover in an axial direction thereof;
a semi-cylindrical metal cover piece detachably mounted on said cylindrical metal cover to close said side opening and cooperating with said semi-cylindrical rear portion of said cylindrical metal cover to form a cylinder;
a cable having a plurality of wires and an insulating sheath covering said wires, said wires being connected to respective ones of said terminal portions of said contact pins inside said semi-cylindrical metal cover piece and said semi-cylindrical rear portion of said cylindrical metal cover;
a cable clamp means coupled to the rear end of said semi-cylindrical rear portion for clamping said cable; and
a separately molded insulating cap formed of a resin material, said insulating cap being positioned to cover said cylindrical metal cover, said semi-cylindrical metal cover piece, said cable clamp means and a portion of said cable clamped by said cable clamp means while exposing a front end portion of said cylindrical metal cover.

Abstract
A connector plug includes a plurality of contact pins carried by an insulating body which is installed in a cylindrical metal cover. The cylindrical metal cover has a semi-cylindrical rear portion which is engaged with a semi-cylindrical metal cover piece into a cylindrical form. A separately molded insulating cap is assembled onto the cylindrical metal cover. Within the insulating cap, a cable clamp member having a thickness greater than that of the cylindrical metal cover is secured to a rear end extension of the cover. A cable connected to the contact pins is clampedly held by the cable clamp member.
