Summary:Apparatus and methods for coupling a rope socket with an armored cable. The armored cable includes a conductor core having one or more cables for transmitting electrical and/or optical signals and at least one layer of armor wires wound around the conductor core. The rope socket includes a housing having an uphole end through which the armored cable extends into the housing and a downhole end through which the conductor core extends from the housing to a component of downhole equipment suspended in a wellbore by the armored cable. The armor wires are arranged inside of the housing so that they are spaced apart at least locally from the conductor core. A plastic material disposed within the housing fills interstices each defined by one or more surfaces of one or more of the conductor core, one or more of the armor wires, and the housing.
