ABSTRACT:
An electrical end connector (10) of the zero insertion force type includes a pair of opposing blocks (21, 40), one of which blocks is slideably mounted in a housing (22). Opposite corresponding pairs of female receptacles (34) and male pins (31) are cooperatively mounted on the opposing blocks (21, 40). The housig (22) has two sets of oppositely disposed windows formed through the longitudinal ends. One block (40) has a channel formed therethrough, such that the block (40) is urged transversely upon insertion of a cam-like slider device (70), thereby selectively engaging or disengaging the male pins (31) and female receptacles (43).
