ABSTRACT:
The upstanding terminating portion (12) of a contact (10) has respective cut-outs forming respective laterally-extending ears (13) on respective sides of the elongated body (11) of the contact (10). The bottom surfaces (14) of the ears (13) are thus elevated above the plane (15) of the top surfaces (16) of the contacts (10). As a result, the contacts (10) may be spaced closer together (Y) for a higher circuit density. Moreover, the ears (13) are supported on respective ledges (19) formed in the insulated connector housing (17); this assures that the terminating portion (12) of each contact (10) will not move during the wire-terminating operation.
