Abstract
The subject invention pertains to a method and connector for coupling to a cable having a center conductor surrounded by a layer of material, further surrounded by one or more conductor wires. In a specific embodiment, the subject coupler can be used with a cable for producing light via electroluminensce. The subject connector for coupling to a cable having a center conductor surrounded by a layer of material, further surrounded by at least one outer conductor wire, can comprise a housing having an electrically conductive portion; an electrically conductive pin, wherein at least a portion of the pin is hollow for receiving a center conductor of a cable; and at least one electrically conductive arm connected to the electrically conductive portion of the housing and insulated from the pin, wherein the at least one electrically conductive arm each having an end adaptive to press one or more of at least one outer conductor wire of the cable against the cable such that electrical contact is made between the electrically conductive arm and the one or more of the least one outer conductor wire of the cable.
