Abstract:
An embodiment is a telecommunication outlet mounted on a printed circuit board (PCB) including a vertical shield extension and an inner shield extension which protrude downwards beyond the PCB. The vertical shield extension and the inner shield extension form a cross structure protruding downwards beyond the PCB, in which the cross structure defines four shielded quadrants each for housing contact tails of a tip and ring pair protruding downwards beyond the PCB. Shielding contact tails from each other with the extensions of the cross structure provides enhanced shielding and reduces crosstalk.

Abstract:
A connector is disclosed for electrically connecting a conductor to a terminal. The connector has a body and an electrically conductive member. The body has a passage for positioning the conductor therein. The passage has an aperture to an outer surface of the body. The electrically conductive member has a first portion and a second portion. The first portion extends through the aperture for crimping the conductor in the passage, and the second portion is for electrically connecting to the terminal. The electrically conductive member moves to disconnect the second portion from the terminal while still crimping the conductor in the passage.
Abstract:
The disclosure is directed toward a Multi-Occupancy Dwelling (MOD) telephone jack for use where different telephone connections could be reconfigured without the need for a telephone technician. In the description herein, the term “jack” is used to describe a receptacle, whereas in the industry, a combination of a receptacle and a plug is sometimes called a jack. The MOD jack is similar to the regulation jack (RJ), or it could be a different connection point. The MOD jack has a plurality of selectable connecting points. The MOD jack includes a rotary dial. The rotary dial is connected to at least one connection point on a first plate and further a plurality of connection points on a second plate. The first plate is connected to a plurality of connection points. By rotating the rotary dial to a selected position, a connection may be made with one connection point, whereby a receptacle is connected to a set of lines, for example, a pair of tip and ring leads that could establish a telephone connection with a central office. In case of a T-1, VOIP or an ISDN connection, it is understood that a set of four, six, or eight wire connections could be made using the same arrangement. In a further aspect, the disclosure is directed toward a modular MOD jack to connect a plurality of devices or service connections. These could be, for example, digital multiple line key phones, PABX extensions, data transmission units, fax machines, and signaling equipment.
Abstract:
A connector module (10) for installation on a small mobile telephone to enable the module to rest at a docking station where contacts mate to pass multiple medium to low frequency signals and power and to pass high frequency signals through a coaxial connection of high frequency signals as to an external antenna. The module includes a molded dielectric body (11) having a first body part (13) that holds the first contacts (17) for medium to low frequency signals and power, and having a second body part (14) that extends from a longitudinal end (98) of the first body part and that holds the coaxial contacts (16). The first contacts have strip-shaped mating sides (18) fixed to the body for engaging mating contacts by merely pressing the body against a row of resilient contacts on the docking station, while the coaxial contacts are constructed with the inner contact having a face that can be deflected by a mating inner contact (28) and with the outer coaxial contact (34) forming a conical recess (15) for receiving a corresponding projection on the mating outer coaxial contact member of the docking station.
Abstract:
A socket device includes one or more sockets disposed in a housing and coupled to AC electric power source via a control switch. An AC/DC converter is coupled to the switch or to the sockets, for converting the AC current to DC current, and includes one or more sockets for outputting the DC current, and for allowing the DC electric facilities to be easily energized by the DC electric power with the further sockets. One or more switches may further be coupled to the sockets, for controlling the sockets. One or more couplers may be used for coupling to telecommunication systems.

Abstract:
A plug and receptacle assembly comprises a plug connector and receptacle connector, for high-density interconnections of data cable. The two connectors are fully shielded and include a mating profile including a modified D-shaped configuration. The receptacle assembly includes a plurality of overmolded webs of lead frames. The webs are overmolded laterally asymmetric to provide a thin web on one side, and a thick web on the other, where air pockets project through the thick webs and expose portions of contacts. The overmolded webs are stacked one against the other such that thin webs are positioned intermediate contacts in the same pair, whereas the thick webs, and air pockets are positioned one against the other in adjacent contacts of adjacent pairs.
Abstract:
A surge arrester mounting unit is provided for telecommunications and data systems technology. The arrester includes an upper part and lower part made of plastic, and metallic contact elements which are arranged in pairs and which engage, by means of spring arms, in chambers of the upper part in order to made contact with surge arresters. The contact elements have contact blades which project out of the lower part. In order to enable the surge arrester mounting unit also to be used for terminal blocks with high transmission rates, the invention provides for the contact blades (11) for separating contact fingers (directed into the interior of a terminal block) (1)), from insulation piercing contact elements (4) to be made approximately twice as long as the spring arms (19) and to be given more than double the material thickness (d) at the free end by bending over.
Abstract:
A telecommunication connector for a distribution point comprises a base part and a detachable configuration module, the configuration module being able to take a plurality of dispositions with respect to the base part, the base part having connection means to (i) a telecommunications cable from an exchange, (ii) a cable to a further distribution point, and (iii) a cable to a consumer, wherein the configuration module causes electrical connection from the exchange to the further distribution point in a first disposition but not in a second disposition. This permits the installer who is connecting a new consumer to disconnect the unnecessary part of the wire forming the relevant pair when activating the service whilst leaving intact the investment in the network. The configuration module can also contain protective devices for the line, such as three or five pin protection, over current devices and over voltage devices, or other active electronic elements. It is further preferred that in the first orientation, the configuration module causes electrical connection between the exchange and consumer to be broken.
Abstract:
A faceplate assembly for mounting to various wall, floor or ceiling mounted electrical boxes, such as a telecommunications box, that is easily assembled and disassembled, and in which the wiring device receiving modules are readily interchangeable. The faceplate assembly includes a plate for covering the box, holes in the plate aligned with holes in the box for securing the plate to the box, at least one aperture in the plate, at least two modules adapted to fit in the at least one plate aperture, and either a blank face on the module or at least one opening in the module for accessing a wiring device receptacle in the box with a wiring device. Fasteners received in the plate openings secure the plate to the box. A module is inserted in the at least one plate aperture from the front side of the plate, allowing a module to be removed and replaced with another module without having to remove the plate from the box. A module may have a blank front face, or it may have one or more openings for accessing the wiring device receptacle in the box. The openings may be oriented in a first direction having a longer horizontal side, or oriented in a second direction with a longer vertical side, as required by the wiring device receptacles housed in the box. The module may also have a sloped front face that facilitates accessing the wiring device. The quickly and easily removable and installable modules provide a versatile faceplate assembly that may be used on a wide variety of receptacle configurations.
