A strain relief boot for a connectorized cable. The boot has a staged bending characteristic in that there are discrete first and second zones that have different bending and minimum bend radius characteristics. The boot is of a segmented design including multiple links separated from one another by open gaps that are spaced from one another in a longitudinal direction. Gaps are positioned along a periphery of the boot for each axial location. Ribs extend longitudinally to connect axially adjacent links, and to separate peripherally spaced gaps. The different characteristics relate to differences in the gap, link and rib structures, which have dimensions varying along the boot's length. Preferably, link and rib dimensions are relatively smaller toward a proximal end of the boot, and gap dimensions are relatively larger toward the proximal end of the boot. This provides greater flexibility and smaller minimum bend radii toward the boot's proximal end.
