End moldings for high-voltage cables are described wherein the dielectric insulator of the cable is heated and molded to conform to a desired shape. As a consequence, high quality substantially bubble-free cable connectors suitable for mating to premanufactured fittings are made. Disclosed are a method for making the cable connectors either in the field or in a factory, molds suitable for use with the method, and the molded cable connectors, themselves.

A molded cable comprises a plurality of conductors and a webbed conductor harness. The webbed harness has openings formed by intersecting strands, the strands including channels therethrough for the conductors. The webbed harness can be made in combination with the conductors or with a preform to form the channels. The preform can then be replaced by the conductors to form the molded cabling.
An adaptor assembly which functions as an extender for coaxial cable connectors. The adaptor assembly includes a support element which provides for support and isolation of a terminal within an assembly housing and minimizes electrical signal degradation by providing only a minimal amount of dielectric material to support the terminal within the housing. Additionally, a metal bushing is provided as part of an auto-seizing assembly and prevents lock-up of the adaptor assembly during installation of the assembly onto a coaxial cable connector.
