HIGH SPEED DATA PLUG AND METHOD FOR ASSEMBLING SAME

摘要

A method and system for terminating a cable into a plug using a plug assembl y system. Wires of the cable are exposed and dressed on to a shield. A plug bo dy is placed over the shield. The wires are fed into wire insertion holes of the plug bod y. A contact holding member is placed on the plug body. A crimping tool crimps the contac ts in the contact holding member through the plug body into and through the wires to achieve mechanical and electrical connection between the wires and the contacts. A cover may be used to cover the plug body, shield and wires. A crimp ferrule may be use d to crimp the wires to the shield.
