ABSTRACT:
A connector includes a base member and a cap designed to be fitted onto each other. The base member or the cap may have a double-wall configuration to improve stability, strength, and durability of the connector unit as a whole. The base member includes a plurality of ribs forming wire-receiving channels and having at least one groove therebetween. The cap includes a conductive connecting plate configured to fit in the groove of the ribs of the base member. The connecting plate itself includes grooves configured to align with the channels of the ribs of the base member to thereby cut and remove insulation of at least one cable housed in the channels.
