ABSTRACT:
An insulation displacement termination system is provided for an input-output electrical connector which includes a dielectric housing having a top face and a bottom face with a terminal-receiving passage therebetween. At least one terminal includes an insulation displacement section generally at the bottom face of the housing for termination to an insulated electrical conductor through a lower mouth of the passage in the bottom face of the housing. The terminal includes a contact section projecting through an open upper end of the passage generally in the top face of the housing for engaging a complementary mating electrical component. The terminal is configured for insertion into the terminal-receiving passage through the lower mouth thereof. Complementary interengaging abutment means are provided between the insulation displacement section of the terminal and the housing to define a stop-limit position of the terminal and to provide support for the insulation displacement section during termination to the insulated electrical conductor. Complementary interengaging latch means are provided between the contact section of the terminal and the housing within the passage for holding the terminal in the passage.
