A connector for a ring circuit of a bus-system with a plurality of connectable information sending and/or information receiving units, whereby the connector has a housing with several plug contacts provided with cutters, which cutters cut through the insulation of the ring circuit for the contacting and which are connectable with an information sending and/or information receiving unit, and under circumstances with a consumer. The housing which receives the plug contacts is constructed as a connector upper part which can be slipped on the ring circuit and under certain circumstances additional lines. The information receiving unit is constructed with use of a printed board assembly and is housed in a capsule which is able to be slipped on the upper part of the housing. The plug contacts have contact surfaces which contact the connection surfaces of the printed board assembly.
