Flexible cable termination and connector system

A flat flexible cable, comprising:

• a length of cable including conductors disposed side-by-side and parallel to one another, said conductors being encased in insulation material, said length of cable having a first connector end and a second connector end;
• said conductors at said first end being exposed for a predetermined length;
• said conductors at said second end including at least two two contact nodes projecting away from said conductors, all portions of said conductors at said second end, except said contact nodes, being encased in said insulation material;
• the width of said cable at said second end exceeds the width of said cable at said first end, and said cable second end further comprises registration holes through the insulation which are disposed on opposite sides of said conductors;
• said conductors at said second end are substantially flattened and extend along the longitudinal axis of said cable, and said nodes extend in a direction which is normal to said axis;
• contact pads;
• said nodes include roughened outer surfaces for scraping engagement with said contact pads;
• and
• means disposed against said second end forcibly urging said nodes into engagement with said contact pads.
