Abstract
Comb-like cable guide elements are provided for each row or pair of rows of cable ends disposed at a distance from a plug-in contact plate for the orderly guidance of the cable ends to plug-in contacts of a plug-in contact plate. Free spaces are provided between adjacent cable guide elements for insertion of circuit boards toward contact strips disposed on the plug-in contact plate. To absorb the pull on the cable ends, resilient clamping devices are provided in the region of recesses in the cable guide elements.
