Abstract: A cable-connector assembly of the type having wires progressively forced into plate slots, in which a common bus plate has slots along opposite edges that are offset and hour-glass shaped so that a high wire density from either side of the plate can be terminated in the slots.

The plates of each array are offset in opposite directions and brought to a common plane to receive their respective wires.
