ABSTRACT:
A modular printed circuit card edge connector or a cable connector plug is made in several parts including the connector body, a bottom plate, two separate end caps and a plurality of connector terminals. The body of the connector can be cut to any length and assembled with the other parts to provide a card edge connector or cable connector of a desired length. In a second embodiment of the invention, a press fit connector is made up of the modular parts. The base plate is not used and the body of the connector is used to press fit the terminals into a circuit board.
