Abstract:
1. A connector including conductive contacts, a first insulator retaining said contacts, and a cable-side insulator, attachable/detachable relative to said first insulator, for retaining a flat cable, wherein when said cable-side insulator is mounted to said first insulator, said flat cable is connected to said contacts, said connector characterized in that said cable-side insulator comprises a second insulator for receiving said flat cable, a third insulator disposed so as to confront said second insulator via said flat cable, and a clamp interposed between said flat cable and said third insulator and, when said cable-side insulator is mounted to said first insulator, said second and third insulators are engaged with said first insulator to approach each other so that said flat cable is sandwiched between said clamp and said second insulator, and said third insulator comprising a rib that pushes said clamp toward said flat cable.
