Abstract: There is disclosed a pin connector (20) for insulation displacement termination of conductors (162) of a multiple conductor cable (156) having a housing (32) having insulation displacement contacts (26) secured therein. Each of the insulation displacement contacts (26) has an insulation displacement portion (46) extending beyond a cable receiving face (48) for terminating to conductors of a multiconductor cable (156). A termination cover (28) securable to the housing (32) is adapted to be pressed toward the cable receiving face (48) to terminate conductors (162) of the cable (156) to respective contacts (26). The termination cover (28) either has a latch/eject lever (30) secured thereto or is adapted to have secured thereto at least one latch/eject lever (30) for latchingly securing a mating connector (44) to the pin connector (20).

A termination cover (28) securable to the housing (22) is adapted to be pressed toward the cable receiving face (48) to terminate conductors of the cable (156) to respective contacts (26). The termination cover (28) has a pivotally mounted latch/eject lever (30) secured thereto for latchingly securing a mating connector to the pin connector. The housing has extensions (250) with protrusions (252) receivable in pivotal mounting apertures (120) to secure the termination cover (28) to the housing (22) at the termination position.

Abstract: An electrical connector (20) for terminating a multiconductor cable (62) includes a housing (22) having a cable receiving face (28), opposed side walls (30,32) and an end wall (36). The end wall (36) has protrusions (64,66,68) extending outwardly therefrom. The first protrusion (64) is located adjacent the cable receiving face (28), centrally located with respect to the side walls (30,32). The lower surface (70) of the first protrusion (64) defines a latching surface. Second (66) and third (68) protrusions are located adjacent respective side walls (30,32), remote from the cable receiving face (28), with each of the second (66) and third (68) protrusions defining a sloped surface (82,84) angled toward the other protrusion, and a latch shoulder (96,98). A terminating cover (24) has a pair of spaced latch arms (124,126) depending therefrom, and an inner surface (114) for engaging a ribbon cable (62) terminated in the housing (22 ).
