ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector for connecting a cable to a card edge interface has a housing portion. The housing portion has a first surface, and a second surface opposite said first surface, and the surfaces are spaced apart to define a housing portion slot for the card edge interface. Furcated contact elements are disposed within the housing. Each contact element has a first tine portion with an exposed contact interface portion, a second tine portion; a web portion connecting the first and second tine portions, and a wire termination portion for terminating a conductor of the cable. The first and second tine portions are arranged within the housing portion with the contact interface exposed for mating with a respective contact surface of the card edge interface.
