Abstract
A first perspective of the invention relates to a connector, a cable harness assembly, and a vehicle CAN bus connector. The connector includes a housing and a metal connection terminal. The cable harness assembly includes multiple cables and the connector. The vehicle CAN bus connector includes the cable harness assembly. According to the invention, an input terminal and an output terminal are integrally disposed, saving the need of a printed circuit board, as such, a process of connecting terminals to a printed circuit board is eliminated. A second perspective of the invention relates to a connection terminal, a connector, a cable harness assembly, and a vehicle CAN bus connector. The connection terminal includes a terminal body and one or more shoulders, which are asymmetrically disposed on a surface of the terminal body and protrude therefrom, so that the connection terminal has an asymmetric structure in a direction perpendicular to the plug-in direction. The invention can prevent a mold from being damaged by incorrect placement of the connection terminal.
