ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector assembly for terminating flat multiconductor ribbon cable includes a socket connector and a mating header connector. The socket connector includes a base supporting plural insulation piercing contacts and a cover which is movably supported over the base to effect termination of the cable to the contacts. A pull-tab strain relief member is provided which is movably supported over the cover. The pull-tab strain relief member includes a containment bar for supporting a further transverse extent of the cable between the containment bar and the cover. The pull-tab strain relief member also includes a slot through which an end portion of the cable is inserted. The connector assembly permits daisy-chain connections to be made along the length of the cable.
