Cable connector assembly

A cable connector assembly comprising:

• first and second connector subassemblies disposed along opposite sides of an insulating divider, each said subassembly comprising:
• an insulating support;
• contact sections adapted for electrical connection to contacts of a mating connector;
• a circuit board disposed on the insulating support and having conductive pads electrically connected to the contact sections;
• a flat electrical cable comprising an array of insulated conductors connected in a common plane and having an end, wherein a portion of each conductor is exposed near the end while the conductors remain insulated and connected in a common plane at the end, the exposed portions of the cable being electrically connected to respective conductive pads on the circuit board thereby electrically interconnecting the cable conductors to the contact sections;
• an insulating housing mounted to the insulating support and having cavities in which the contact sections are disposed;
• a cover housing mounted to the insulating support and engaging the cable to provide strain relief therefore;
• and
• wherein the cable connector assembly is adapted for pluggable engagement with a mating connector such that, when the cable connector assembly and a mating connector are plugged together, contacts of the mating connector are received by the cavities of the insulating housing and are electrically connected to the contact sections disposed therein.
