Electrical connector having terminal alignment means

摘要

An electrical connector includes a dielectric housing having a cavity for receiving a plurality of terminal modules. Each of the plurality of terminal modules includes a dielectric insert receivable in the cavity to define a side-by-side array of modules. Each insert is overmolded about a plurality of terminals to rigidly fix the terminals with male portions of the terminals projecting from the housing. Auxiliary alignment apertures are provided in the housing immediately adjacent the cavity for embracing and maintaining proper spacing and alignment of the male portions of the terminals.
