ABSTRACT:
An electrical cable assembly comprising a multi-conductor cable having an end portion terminating in a multi-contact connector which includes a rigid shielding shell of electrically conductive material disposed to receive therein a dielectric insert for supporting a plurality of terminal contact members secured to respective conductors in the cable. The dielectric insert comprises a trough-like body and a cover for disposing over the opening of the body, the cover and an opposing bottom wall of the body being provided with respective similar pluralities of mutually spaced holes wherein the terminal contact members are installed. The cover is provided with a plurality of flexible tabs which engage respective ramp portions of the body for locking the cover on the body to form a unitary terminal-supporting structure prior to assembly in the rigid shielding shell of the connector.
