Terminal module and data cable including the terminal module

A data cable, comprising:

• a cable body, a connector and a terminal module which are provided on one end of the cable body;
• wherein the terminal module comprises an insulating piece and two groups of terminals, each group of terminals comprises a plurality of terminals arranged at intervals;
• each terminal comprises a first transition section and a contact section connected in sequence;
• a direction of the terminal towards an adjacent terminal is defined as a width direction, a plurality of first transition sections are bent in the same direction along the width direction;
• the two groups of terminals are provided on the insulating piece, and the contact section of each terminal is partially exposed out of the insulating piece forming a first contact point;
• a gap is formed between two adjacent contact sections of each group of terminals, and the corresponding gaps of the two groups of terminals are through and the two groups of terminals are mated with the insulating piece;
• the terminal module is embedded in the connector, the connector defining an alignment slot, the first contact points being disposed at a bottom of the alignment slot;
• the contact section of each terminal is offset in the width direction relative to the end of the first transition section away from the contact section;
• the contact section of each terminal is provided with a protrusion extending in the width direction;
• corresponding protrusions of adjacent terminals in each group of terminals are staggered in the width direction;
• a direction perpendicular to the width direction and to the long side of each contact section is defined as a height direction;
• protrusions corresponding to the two groups of terminals are staggered in the height direction.
