ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for terminating ribbon cable to a two row connector having insulation displacing terminals facing opposite sides comprises a conductor programming station on a carriage, a connector positioning carriage, and a terminating station. The conductor programming station has combs which deflect individual conductors from the plane of the cable into channels in a pair of spaced apart templates which realign the conductors. The connector positioning carriage is slideable on a pair of rails to position a connector between the templates, and the two carriages are moved as a unit to the terminating station where the connector is positioned between a pair of insertion rams, which have tooling which passes through slots in the templates to terminate the conductors.
