Abstract: A connector assembly (10) is disclosed in which a connector part (12) and a cable manager part (20) are provided. The cable manager part (20) can be provided with a separable lacing fixture (24) that functions to retain the severed portions (6a) of the wires (6) that result from the termination process, rather than allowing the severed wire portions (6a) to fall to the floor in an uncollected state. In one aspect, the cable manager part (20) has a main body (22) to which the separable lacing fixture (24) is attached via a plurality of breakaway portions (34). During installation, the connector part (12) is inserted onto the cable manager part (20) and is placed in a wire termination tool (7) which fully inserts the connector part (12) onto the cable manager part (20). This action causes the connector part (12) to cut the wires (6) and to sever or break the breakaway portions (34) such that the separable lacing fixture (24) is separated from the fully formed connector (10).
