US Patent 11509105 Connector with separable lacing fixture

A connector assembly has a connector part and a cable manager part. The cable manager part can be provided with a separable lacing fixture that functions to retain the severed portions of the wires that result from the termination process, rather than allowing the severed wire portions to fall to the floor in an uncollected state. In one aspect, the cable manager part has a main body to which the separable lacing fixture is attached via a plurality of breakaway portions.
