Abstract:
A cable connection method for connecting a cable to a cable connector having a fitting portion directed to a first direction, said cable having a core wire, said method comprising the steps of:providing a cable connector comprising a base insulator and a base contact coupled to said base insulator, providing a cover insulator movable in a predetermined direction making an angle with said first direction, said cover insulator being formed with a partition wall for positioning said core wire to make said core wire face said base contact in said predetermined direction; providing a support contact coupled to said cover insulator in said predetermined direction; exposing, as an exposed part, a part of said core wire by half-stripping an end of said cable; disposing said cable on said cover insulator so that said exposed part of said core wire is brought into contact with said support contact; and moving said cover insulator together with said exposed part towards said base insulator in said predetermined direction to clamp said exposed part between said base contact and said support contact, whereby said core wire is electronically connected to said base contact; and cutting the end of said cable after the moving step.
