A cable connector assembly includes a cable (5) and a connector (100) terminated to the cable (5). The connector (100) further includes a connector body (20), a cover means (9) fastening the connector body (20) and connecting means (7) securing said cable (5) to the cover means (9). The connecting means (7) further includes an outer ferrule (73) having a first part (733) crimped onto the cable and a second part (731) crimped onto a shield (53) of the cable 5, and an inner ferrule (71) fastened substantially under the shield (53) to the outer ferrule (73) in the area of the second part (731) for making an axial locking between the outer ferrule (73) and the inner ferrule (71). The inner ferrule (71) forms a number of resilient tabs (719) flexibly abutting the cover means (9) thereby making firmly electrical connection to the cover means (9).
