Clamping contact element, and edge connector made up of several of such clamping contact elements, for the connection of conductors.

An edge connector is provided capable of interconnecting the conductors on a flexible conductor film and the conductors on one or more rigid substrates, such as for LCD or LED displays. The edge connector includes a plurality of clamping contact elements, each with at least three contact arms defining at least two insertion openings, one for the rigid substrates and one for flexible film. A fourth arm may be included to define a third insertion opening for a second rigid substrate.
