ABSTRACT:
A cable connector assembly (1) includes an insulative housing (2), a number of contacts (3), a number of wires (4), and a cover (5) mounted to the housing. The insulative housing has a number of passageways (24) in a front portion (20) and a number of posts (27) on a rear portion (22). Every two neighboring posts define a contact-receiving tunnel (26) therebetween. Each contact includes a three-beam mating portion (30) received in the passageways, and an insulation displacement portion (32) received in a corresponding contact-receiving tunnel. The insulation displacement portion includes a first wall (320), a second wall (322), and an intermediate section (324) connecting the first and the second walls. The first and the second walls each define a slot (328), and the slots align with each other. Each wire is received in the slots of a corresponding contact and electrically connected with the contact in the contact-receiving tunnel.
