ABSTRACT:
Interface modules (200,300) have identical first mating interfaces (204,304) to mate with the same cable tap connector (10). Contact arrays for either of the two different interface modules (200,300) are defined by use of the same first members (232) having first contact sections (224,322) and transverse body sections (228,324), being joined to one of two groups (226) or (336) of socket members by crimping pin embossments (242) or (338) at either closely spaced holes (248) or less closely spaced holes (250), to define a closely spaced array (254) or a less closely spaced array (258) along second mating interfaces (206,306) to correspond with smaller round cable connector (208) or larger round cable connector (308). Thereby a cable tap connector (10) providing connection to a flat cable (12) may be modified by selection of different interface modules (200) or (300) for use with different types of mating connectors (208) or (308) The contacts of each array may also be of different sizes.
