A terminal system having a terminal ground plate portion with a hump projecting therefrom is adapted to terminate an inner metallic shield of a high speed cable, the cable having an outer jacket and the inner metallic shield with a portion of the outer jacket removed to expose a portion of the metallic shield. The hump has a slot for receiving the cable at a location along the cable in registry with the exposed metallic shield thereof. With the metallic shield maintained in the slot, a solder connection is established between the metallic shield and the ground plate portion at the hump.
