ABSTRACT:
In a cable termination system, there is provided a terminator pair for terminating conductors of respective cables. Each terminator comprises a body of insulating material having a pair of contact anchor portions joined by a diagonal web portion at one end of the body and diagonally spaced at the other end of the body to receive the diagonal web portion of the other terminator for mating compact interengagement, and at least one contact anchored in each contact anchor portion for connecting a respective signal conductor of the respective cable to another member. The contact anchor portions are substantially rectangular in transverse profile and occupy respective quadrants of the terminator pair which correspondingly are substantially rectangular for mating receipt in a cavity in a housing or holder. The terminator pairs constitute basic building blocks for the system and are insertable into housings to provide a high density multi-connector pin-out configuration. Each terminator also includes a lock for locking the terminator pair in a housing provided with a resilient locking tab capable of being flexed to provide selective release of the terminators from the housing.
