How are the IEEE-488/GPIB cable assembly connectors terminated?

These connectors are terminated using the IDC (Insulation Displacement Connection) method. The cable conductors are pressed into a terminal slot smaller than the conductor diameter, displacing the insulation, and forming an electrical contact between the terminal and the conductor.
