When you have a printer in a cabinet cats, dogs, kids, and even adults can catch the cable and pull the printer into the side of the cabinet. When this happens, at a minimum you can ruin the print. Worst case you damage the printer. The strain relief prevents snags on the print cable from pulling the printer around. 

To use the strain relief drill a 1 3/8 hole in the side of the cabinet, install the main body from the inside and place the spacer on the body. Install the end cap and grommet on the cable and thread the cable through the body. Press the grommet into the main body and thread the end cap down.
