1. A cable connector assembly, comprising:
- a fitting having first and second fitting ends and a fitting opening therethrough, wherein the fitting is formed from a conductive material;
a ferrule having first and second ferrule ends, a ferrule opening therethrough, and one or more teeth disposed axially along the ferrule opening, wherein the ferrule is formed from a conductive material and wherein the first ferrule end is disposed over the second fitting end; and
an inner conductive layer;
a jacket surrounding the inner conductive layer, wherein the jacket is formed from at least one synthetic rubber; and
wherein the inner conductive layer and the jacket are disposed between the second fitting end and the first ferrule end and the ferrule is secured around the fitting so that at least one of the one or more teeth pierce the jacket and wherein an EMI/RFI shield is created across the fitting, the ferrule, and the inner conductive layer.

24. A cable connector assembly, comprising:
-
a fitting having first and second fitting ends and a fitting opening therethrough, wherein the fitting is formed from a conductive material; a coupling ring formed from a conductive material, wherein the coupling ring contacts the first fitting end; a ferrule having first and second ferrule ends, a ferrule opening therethrough, and one or more teeth disposed axially along the ferrule opening, wherein the ferrule is formed from a conductive material and the first ferrule end is disposed over the second fitting end; and at least one wire disposed within a conductive shield, wherein the conductive shield is disposed within a tube, wherein the tube includes an outer nonconductive and heat resistant layer;
a middle textile layer, and an inner nonconductive layer and wherein the tube is disposed between the second fitting end and the first ferrule end;wherein the outer nonconductive and heat resistant layer of the tube comprises a jacket surrounding the middle textile layer; wherein the jacket is formed from at least one synthetic rubber; and wherein the ferrule is secured to contact the fitting and so that at least one of the one or more teeth pierce the outer nonconductive layer and wherein an EMI/RFI shield is created across the coupling ring, the fitting, the ferrule, and the tube. - View Dependent Claims (25, 26)
