Abstract (en)

An electrical connector (200,300) comprises a forward housing member (10,212) having rows of passageways (24,222) in which are disposed signal and ground terminals (22,214,216) terminated to signal (152,260) and ground (154,262) conductors of signal transmission cables or ribbon cable (150,218) with the terminals being secured to a dielectric contact-carrying means (42,238) and then overmolded after termination by dielectric cover means (30,220). The cover means seals the terminations and provides nondeforming cable strain relief. In one embodiment each row of terminals (22) is first secured on one side (46) of a separate contact-carrying member (42) with a ground plane (62) secured to the other side (58), and signal conductors (152) are terminated to respective signal terminals (22) and ground conductors (154) are terminated to the ground plane (62) which is electrically connected to selected ground ones of terminals (22) after which the subassembly (40) thus formed is overmolded with the dielectric cover (30). Two such overmolded assemblies (12) are securable together and secured to the housing member (10) with contact sections (20) of the terminals (22) secured in the housing passageways (24).
