a seal positioned between the outer housing and the inner housing, the seal having
a first sealing device with a sealing rib extending from an outer side of the seal, and
a second sealing device with a catch receiving passageway extending through the seal and an internal sealing rib extending from the seal into the catch receiving passageway; and
a mating connector receiving gap positioned between an inner side of the outer housing and the first sealing device.
2. The connector according to claim 1 , wherein the first sealing device partially extends around the outer side of the seal.
3. The connector according to claim 1 , wherein the outer housing includes a catch device extending through the catch receiving passageway and engaging a catch recess of the inner housing.
4. The connector according to claim 3 , wherein the catch device is a projection.
5. The connector according to claim 1 , wherein the seal further includes a third sealing device having a cable receiving passageway extending through the seal and a protruding sealing rib extending from the seal into the cable receiving passageway.
6. The connector according to claim 1 , wherein the seal includes a collar extending radially around the seal.
7. The connector according to claim 6 , wherein the collar partially extends around the seal.
8. The connector according to claim 1 , wherein the seal provides a secure sealed connection between the outer housing and the inner housing along a contact region of the connector.
9. A connector comprising:
an outer housing;
an inner housing;
a seal having a first sealing device, the seal being positioned between the outer housing and the inner housing such that a mating connector receiving gap is positioned between an inner side of the outer housing and the first sealing device; and
a cable traction relief member disposed between the outer housing and the seal.
10. The connector according to claim 9 , wherein the cable traction relief member includes a mounting section having a mounting flange extending into a region between the seal and an inner shoulder of the outer housing.
11. The connector according to claim 10 , wherein the cable traction relief member includes a plurality of plates that extend into a guide portion of the outer housing and resiliently bias each other when the cable traction relief member is positioned in the outer housing.
