Abstract
An electrical connector for the terminating edge of a printed circuit board to form the portion of the printed circuit board adapted to engage bowed portions of contact fingers in a conventional card edge connector. The finger connector insulator includes a slotted head section for receiving the board edge and a blade section for engaging a conventional card edge connector. Each side of the insulator contains a plurality of spaced contact receiving sleeves formed by parallel, transversely extending recesses which face outwardly on the blade and inwardly from each wall of the slotted head and which are connected by coaxial apertures formed in the head section.
