Abstract

A cable connector assembly (100) according to the present invention includes an insulator (2), a PCB (5) and a wire management member (4). The insulator includes a front side, a rear side, a number of terminal passages (24) between the front side and the rear side, and a number of terminals (3) respectively mounted in the terminal passages, each of the terminals has a tail (33) extended out of the rear side of the insulator. The PCB is located behind the insulator and includes a number of first conductive pads (51) which connect with the corresponding terminals and a number of second conductive pads (52) which is soldered to a number of wires (6), the first conductive pads electrically connect with the corresponding second conductive pads. The wire management member is held by the insulator, and defines a number of wire management grooves (421) above the PCB and adjacent to the second conductive pads, the wire management grooves receives the corresponding wires for enabling the wires to be respectively soldered to the second conductive pads.
