Due to the decreasing distance between the fins 68, 88 of the first receiving part 22 and the second receiving part 24 and the elastic deformability of the first receiving part 22 and the second receiving part 24 cores 18 can be reliably received and held with different diameters.

When mounting the connector device 10, the data cable 14 is stripped in a first step. Subsequently, the stripped portion of the data cable 14 is inserted into the guide member 66 of the wiring block 12 until an arranged on the data cable 14 edge of the sheath of the data cable 14 is present at least one stop element 80 of the wiring block 12, so that the stripped portion of the data cable 14 on a the receiving areas 16 of the wiring block 12 facing side of the guide member 66 is arranged. The wiring block 12 has two stop elements 80, which are arranged on opposite walls of the guide element 66 along a diameter of the guide element 66. The stopper members 80 are formed integrally with the wiring block 12. The stop elements 80 project into the guide element 66 of the wiring block 12 in the radial direction 34 of the data cable 14. The stopper members 80 are rib-shaped. The stop elements 80 are further provided to assist and facilitate threading or the insertion of the stripped portion of the data cable 14 and also at least approximately evenly divide the paired wires 18 into two groups and thus presort.

In an inserted state of the data cable 14, the pairs of twisted wires 18 of the data cable 14 are aufgedröselt in the stripped area of the data cable 14 and then each introduced into each one of the receiving elements 20. In each case one core 18 of the data cable 14 is introduced perpendicular to an insertion direction 70 of the data cable 14 in each case one of the receiving elements 20. For this purpose, the wires 18, viewed parallel to the insertion direction 70, inserted from above into the first receiving part 22 and the second receiving part 24 and pressed to the wiring block 12 in the receiving elements 20. In this case, the wire 18 is pressed between the fins 68 of the first receiving part 22 of the receiving elements 20, whereby the fins 68 are deformed and fix the wire 18 of the data cable 14 frictionally and positively. The fins 68 of the first receiving part 22 and the fins 88 of the second receiving part 24 of the receiving elements 20 deform elastically. However, it is also conceivable for the lamellae 68 of the first receiving part 22 and the lamellae 88 of the second receiving part 24 of one of the receiving elements 20 to plastically deform or additionally tear when the wire 18 of the data cable 14 is pressed in, whereby the torn lamellae 68, 88 claw in a sheath of the wire 18 of the data cable 14 and thus a particularly reliable attachment of the wire 18 of the data cable 14 can be achieved.

The lamellae 68 of the first receiving part 22 and the lamellae 88 of the second receiving part 24 cut the sheathing of the cores 18 in an inserted state, whereby a positive fixation of the cores 18 is achieved. The fins 68 of the first receiving part 22 and the fins 88 of the second receiving part 24 are formed sharp-edged and knife-shaped.

In addition, the wires 18 are considered when pressed into the receiving elements 20, parallel to the insertion direction 70, respectively inserted from above into the second receiving part 24 and pressed to the wiring block 12 in the receiving elements 20 so that the wire 18 by the distance between the retaining lugs 26th of the second receiving part 24 of the receiving elements 20 is pressed and comes to rest in a receiving region of the second receiving part 24.

In each case one of the insulation displacement contacts 62 engages in the collapsed state in each case a recess which is enclosed in each case by one of the receiving areas 16 and which, viewed in the radial direction 34, between the first receiving part 22 and the second receiving part 24 of the receiving elements 20 is arranged. In each case one of the insulation displacement contacts 62 engages in the collapsed state, a core 18 of the data cable 14 and thereby cuts the sheathing of the core 18 of the data cable 14, so that the insulation displacement contact 62 electrically contacts the wire 18. Upon pushing together and cutting the insulation displacement contacts 62 in the sheath of the wires 18 of the data cable 14, the wires 18 of the data cable 14 are held by the first receiving part 22 and the second receiving part 24 of the receiving elements 20 and against slipping of the wires 18 in the pushed together secured.
