A cable punch assembly has a rod with first and second ends, and a base with first and second faces. The second end of the rod is connected to the first face. First and second connectors extend from the second face. Each of the connectors includes two laterally spaced wire pusher members that extend axially from the base to receive an insulation displacement contact between the pusher members as the pusher members force a wire into a wire receiving slot of the contact. Each connector engages a single wire, so the cable punch assembly may connect a plurality of wires to a plurality of insulation displacement contacts of a wiring unit. A blade may be positioned proximal each connector to cut off excess wire at the same time that the wires are inserted into receiving slots of insulation displacement contacts.
