Abstract
A retainer assembly configured to be inserted into a plug housing to form a plug connector includes a retainer housing including a top housing portion and a bottom housing portion, a circuit board partially disposed between the top and bottom housing portions, at least one substantially flat top cable including a plurality of conductors, at least one substantially flat bottom cable including a plurality of conductors, and an adhesive for bonding the conductors to the circuit board. The top and bottom housing portions each define at least one top through opening therein and each include mating latching members. The plurality of conductors of the flat top and bottom cables are terminated at top and bottom termination regions on the circuit board, respectively, and are aligned with and exposed through the corresponding through openings. The adhesive at least partially fills each through opening and bonds the conductors in the corresponding exposed termination region to the circuit board.
