Electrical terminal having a cage clamp for wire termination

Embodiments of the invention provide an electrical terminal that provides wire termination at an edge of a printed circuit board. The electrical terminal includes a terminal body having a first corner, a cage clamp in the terminal body and defining a wire insert axis and a screw insert axis, and a base supporting the terminal body on the printed circuit board. The base is angled so that the firstcorner is aligned along a front plane defined along the edge of the printed circuit board. 本发明的实施例提供一种电气端子，所述电气端子在印刷电路板的边缘处提供线缆端接。所述电气端子包含具有第一角部的端子主体、在端子主体中并定义线缆插入轴和螺钉插入轴的笼式夹具，以及在印刷电路板上支撑端子主体的基座。基座成角度，使得所述第一角部沿着前平面对准，所述前平面是沿着印刷电路板的边缘定义的。
