ABSTRACT:
A connector is disclosed having a plurality of contact elements to be pressed-in into contact holes in a printed circuit board. The contact elements are arranged in a housing of insulating material. In order to press-in all contact elements of the connector simultaneously into the respective contact holes of the circuit board such a large force has to be applied to the housing that the housing may be damaged. The contact elements are elongated to extend up to the top surface of the housing such that the insertion force can be applied directly to the contact elements.
