Abstract

A connector element for a two-part coupling connector having a wire holding part (9) and a contact holding part (5) axially supporting within its boundary at least one insulation displacement element (6). The contact holding part includes a contact spring (8) arranged to resiliently urge a shielding braid pig-tail of a cable whose insulated conductors (14, 15, 16 and 17) are held by the wire holding part, into a recess (20) in the contact holder part for providing a resilient electrical contact with the shield.
