Definitions

  • the assembly can be completed by crimping the arms 154 on the lower shield member to bring the shield arms into a crimp condition with the shielding braid of the shielded cable, which also commons the cross talk shield members 220 and 200 to the shielding braid.
  • the shielded sub-assembly as described above is then insertable into the housing member 70 ( Figures 5 and 6) through the rear side thereof until the housing 4 abuts the forward lip 85, whereupon the latches 142 are snapped in place within respective apertures 84.
  • an integral cross-talk shield 480 is provided by a strap portion 482 extending integrally from a side edge 484 and folded flush with the top plate member 462 as shown best in the side plan view of Figure 39 and the lower plan view of Figure 43.
  • the top shield member 460 shown in Figures 39-43 is usable with any of the lower shield members described herein, and is also usable with the stuffer cap 180 as described with reference to Figures 17-19, the integral cross-talk shield 480 being receivable within the slot 194 of the stuffer cap 180.
