ABSTRACT:
Apparatus is provided for connecting the rear termination ends (32, 34) of connector contacts (12, 14) to wires (42, 44) of a cable (40) in a design where the solder connections are encased in molded plastic, which maintains the contacts so their axes (20, 22) extend precisely along forward-rearward directions. This is accomplished by providing a mold with an alignment mold part (110) with holders (114, 120) that either directly engage shoulders (160, 162) of the contacts or that engage shoulders (140, 142) formed on a circuit board (54) with holes (62) that closely receive rear termination ends (32) of a contact.
