Abstract
The invention relates to a connector block for separating a plurality of insulated conductors of an electronic data cable, said connector block containing: a plurality of slits arranged in a row along a common side of the connector block; a plurality of insulation displacement contacts comprising forked contact sections which at least partially extend into respective individual slits in order to electrically separate the insulated conductors; and a cable manager which is coupled to another side of the connector block and extends outwardly therefrom. The cable manager is embodied in such a way as to secure the conductors in substantially fixed positions between one end of the sheath of the data cable and the insulation displacement contacts.
