Abstract
A plug connector device (10) for multicore flat cables (15), has a plug (11) which can be fixedly joined to one end of a flat cable in a mechanical fashion, and a plug socket (12) which can be run through by the flat cable (15) such that, with their first contact ends (62), contact elements of the plug socket (12) engaging in the plug (11) can be electronically connected to the flat cable at their other contact ends (63) using IDC technology. To assure that the plug connector device is robust and has high contacting reliability, provision is made that plug (11) is provided with contact elements (18), whose first contact ends (38) are configured for the electrical connection to the first contact ends (62) of the contact elements (19) of the plug socket (12), and whose other contact ends (36) are configured for the connection to the flat cable (15) using IDC technology.
