Abstract
A cable termination assembly for in line emulation function includes plural pairs of electrical IDC (insulation displacement connection) contacts that face opposite directions on opposite sides of a multiconductor cable and a strain relief for holding together the cable and the contacts for use such that electrical connection is provided among each pair of contacts and a respective conductor of the cable. Desirably the IDC connections of contacts to the cable conductors are made simultaneously by contacts on both sides of the cable. A method and a machine for making the assembly provide for such simultaneous IDC connections and subsequent direct molding of the strain relief.
