<p>An electrical connector (12) for coupling the wires of a plurality of multiconductor flat cables (14) with another electrical connector (16) comprises, in combination a plurality of electrically insulating blocks (72); a plurality of signal contacts (26) extending through each block (72), the signal contacts (26) of each block (72) being adapted to receive the wires (24) of one associated multiconductor flat cable (14); and a housing (68) for supporting the plurality of blocks (72) in a fixed position with respect to each other, the housing (68) having means (140) to releasably couple with another electrical connector (16). Also disclosed is the method of fabricating the electrical connector (12). <IMAGE> <IMAGE></p> |
