<p>MASS TERMINABLE FLAT CABLE ASSEMBLY WITH READILY SEPARABLE GROUND PLANE A flat cable assembly for use with a mass termination connector. The cable assembly includes a main cable having a plurality of conductors held in regularly spaced parallel relationship in a sheet of insulation to match the terminal element spacing of the connector. The main cable has a first surface, a second surface and lateral ends with the surfaces extending between the ends. A plastic covering having an interior surface facing the main cable second surface is provided. A release agent is printed on either or both of the interior surface of the plastic covering and the second surface of the main cable so that portions of the printed upon surface are coated by the release agent and other portions of that surface are uncoated. A metallic ground plane is positioned between the main cable and the covering with the plastic covering being bonded to the second surface at the uncoated portions so that the plastic covering can be readily separated from the main cable to expose the ground plane.</p> |
