A strain relief sleeve for use in conjunction with a standard in-line telephone-type modular plug having a multi-wire cable inserted thereinto is disclosed. The strain relief sleeve comprises a main body in the form of a shell having walls of predetermined thickness. The main body has a cable engaging portion and a plug engaging portion, and comprises substantially identical first and second body portions. The first and second body portions have co-operating opposed mating surfaces at the outer end of each of said side wall members that faces the respective outer end of said wall member of the other of said first and second body portions. An internal gripping surface on the cable engaging portion is shaped and dimensioned so as to intimately engage the jacket of the inserted cable in unmoving relation thereto, to thereby cause the cable engaging portion to securely grip the inserted cable in movement precluding relation. An internal engaging surface on the plug engaging portion is shaped and dimensioned so as to intimately engage the exterior surface of the plug in unmoving relation thereto, to thereby cause the plug engaging portion to securely grip the plug in movement precluding relation. When tensile forces are generated in the jacket of the cable from pulling on the cable, the forces are generally transmitted from the cable to the cable engaging portion, through the main body, to the plug engaging portion, and ultimately to the plug.
