Abstract
An improved electrical connector is disclosed for terminating multi-conductor flat flexible cable. The connector includes a housing which is pre-loaded with a plurality of terminals, each having an insulation displacing portion extending from a mating face, and a cover which is adapted to be held on the housing in a spaced position, in an unterminated condition, and which fully seats against the housing upon termination. The cover further includes both cable stop means and conductor positioning means. The connector further can include a snap-in handle member which makes it easier to remove the assembled connector from an associated header.
