Cable assembly with jumper function

摘要

A cable assembly, comprises a housing with a plurality of terminal receiving passages extending from a front surface to a rear surface thereof and arranged into an upper row and a lower row. A plurality of insulation displacement terminals are received into the corresponding terminal receiving passages; each insulation displacement terminal defines a connecting portion beyond the rear surface of the housing. A flat cable is defined by a plurality of conductors arranged side by side in a transverse direction and an insulative layer surrounding the conductors, and is pressed to the rear surface of the housing and insulation displacement connected with the insulation displacement terminals, each conductor of the flat cable electrically connects with two insulation displacement terminals in a vertical direction. And a cover is assembled to the housing and hold the flat cable to the housing.
