Abstract

An interconnect system is disclosed which enables the interconnection of a plurality of modules, each terminating a different cable, in a single connector. Each module can be used to terminate an individual cable and an assembly of modules are secured together in a single interconnect housing. Thus it is possible, with this connector, to intermix cables of different types such as ribbon cable, jacketed cable, etc., as well as cables of different numbers of conductors and cables having different wire sizes and wire types, for example stranded or solid conductor.
