Abstract
A connector (10) having two rows of signal terminals (20) easily terminated to conductors (106) of discrete wires (14) and including an integral shield ground (40) to ground the shielding braid (16) of the cable (12). A wire-carrying subassembly (130) having the discrete wires secured thereto is moved against the rear (36) of the front housing member (30) to place stripped conductor portions (108) of the wires adjacent the rear terminal sections (28) for termination. The wire-carrying subassembly (130) includes a body member (50) having a wire-receiving region along a forward edge in which ends of the wires will be secured, and a conductive shield ground section (40) having one or two rearward extensions (42) having tabular end portions (44) for termination to the cable braid (16), and one or two ground contact sections (48) extending forwardly to be terminated to a ground terminal of the connector subassembly.
