Abstract
In a cable connector for use in connecting a cable having a first and a second surface opposite to each other in twin thickness direction thereof, a conductive contact has twin contact portions to be opposed to the first surface and a pivot portion to be opposed to the second surface. A handle is used for pressing the cable between the twin contact portions. The handle has a cam portion positioned between the pivot portion and the cable and is made with a hole in which the pivot portion is inserted with a clearance. The pivot portion has a concavity corresponding to the cam portion. The cam portion engages with the pivot portion so that the handle is rotatable around the pivot portion.
