Abstract
Abstract A connector (20) for establishing electrical contact with a high count twisted pair cable (10) is formed of a wiring block (22) which telescopes into a receptacle (24). The leading edges (22a, 22b) of the wiring block in conjunction with the scalloped trailing edge (30, 32) of the receptacle form a shear for cutting the conductors (14) assembled in the wiring block to length.
