Abstract:
A wire spacer for use with a cable termination connector used to terminate an electrical cable containing a plurality of wires, comprising:a block of dielectric material for being located between the cable termination connector and the cable, the block of dielectric material having a plurality of holes defined therethrough and extending from one side to an opposite side thereof, each hole being open only to the one side and to the opposite side and not to other sides of the block, each hole being for extension of one wire of the plurality of wires therethrough, wherein, when assembled with the cable termination connector, a front side of the wire spacer abuts a rear edge of a printed circuit board, said printed circuit board being a component of the cable termination connector, said printed circuit board having a top surface and a bottom surface, and conductors of the wires attaching to one or both surfaces of the printed circuit board, the wire spacer thereby facilitating organization of the wires for easing connection of each wire to a component of the cable termination connector, while at the same time functioning as a cable strain relief.
