Abstract: A terminal fitting (1) includes a rectangular tube (11) with a bottom wall (12), two side walls (13A, 13B) rising from the bottom wall (12) and a ceiling wall (15) facing the bottom wall (12). The rectangular tube (11) includes a terminal insertion opening (17) on one end, and a tab (T) is insertable therein. A resilient contact piece (21) is arranged along the bottom wall (12) inside the rectangular tube (11). Two protection walls (31A, 31B) extend respectively from the side walls (13A, 13B) to close the terminal insertion opening (17), leaving a clearance for entrance of the tab (T) between the ceiling wall (15) and the protection walls. The protection walls (31A, 31B) have facing edges (35A, 35B) facing the mating protection walls (31B, 31A), and the facing edges (35A, 35B) extend obliquely with respect to a line (L) perpendicular to the bottom wall (12).

Abstract: The connector structure selectively uses either a UTP connector or an STP connector. The UTP connector includes UTP connection terminals connected to respective electric wires of a UTP cable and a UTP dielectric having a pair of housing portions in which the UTP connection terminals are housed. The STB connector includes STP connection terminals connected to respective electric wires of an STP cable and an STP dielectric having a pair of housing portions in which the STP connection terminals are housed. In the UTP dielectric, at least a partition wall for partitioning the pair of housing portions is made of a material having a relatively high dielectric constant. In the STP dielectric, at least a partition wall for partitioning the pair of housing portions is made of a material having a relatively low dielectric constant.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a terminal-attached electric wire including an electric wire including a core wire having plurality of strand wires, and a female terminal including wire barrels crimped around the core wire. The method includes a first step of applying ultrasonic vibrations to the core wire, and a second step of crimping the wire barrels in a region of the core wire to which ultrasonic vibrations have been applied. The first step includes applying ultrasonic vibrations to the core wire while leaving a compression margin for the crimping by the second step such that the resistance between the electric wire and the female terminal is stabilized until the strand wires of the terminal-attached electric wire are severed when the core wire of the terminal-attached electric wire is further compressed after the second step.
