these little devices are generally called connectors
when you cut the armor it leaves some burs so there a little fiber bushing you slip under the armor and over the wire before putting in into the connector and into the box
rome cable company had a armored cable they called BX which kinda stuck
the generic term is MC for metal clad
MC Cable Connectors

These little red bushings that come with rolls of BX cable are called anti-shorts.

Where are armored cables and unarmored cables used?
Armored cable is used in environments such as a front yard where environmental conditions make an armored cable susceptible to damage. If the question is asking about Shielded/Screened cable, that has a small thin metal foil wrapping that is used to "screen out" most external signal noise from the cable.

What is single core armored cable?
Armored electrical cable contains insulated electrical service wires protected by a flexible steel covering. Unarmored electrical cable has no protective flexible steel covering, its covering is made of plastic. <><><> Armored cable (BX) is the older version of Metal Clad cable (MC). It was flexible steel covered wire that used the steel as it's Ground. BX was a poor grounding system so it was replaced with MC which looks similar but has a separate Grounding conductor. MC is most often made with aluminum as its cover. Armored cable if used today will refer to MC type wiring. <><><> Some kinds of armored cable are in fact made to a tougher standard than the ordinary soft wire strand types of shielded cable that are used for hooking-up antennas. The 'armor' is actually a thin flexible metal film that better protects the wire or wires inside from damage in high use or high traffic areas. Such kinds of armored cable are also used in radio frequency assemblies in electronic equipment.

What is steel tape armored cable?
Armored cable that has a inbedded tape that is used for grounding purposes. The steel tape is wrapped around the inner conductors which carry the load current. A heavy rubber coating is applied over the steel tape layer. The steel and heavy rubber helps protect the cable from physical damage, e.g. by someone digging in the ground where the cable is buried.
