Abstract
An insulation displacement contact includes a monolithic electrically conductive contact body that includes mating portion and a mounting portion. The mating portion defines a pair of insulation displacement slots configured to receive an electrical cable delivered by a connector housing. The insulation displacement contact includes a retention wall that is received by the connector housing in order to insert the electrical cable into the insulation displacement slots. The connector housing can further receive the insulation displacement contact so as to deliver the mounting portion to a complementary electrical component to which the insulation displacement contact is mounted.
