Abstract: A modular arrangement (10) in the field of telecommunications comprises a first contact module (16) adapted to be mounted to a carrier (18) in the field of telecommunications and having plural contacts (26, 28) arranged in plural pairs, which are adapted to connect wires (30, 32) therewith, at least one functional module (14) fittable to the first contact module (16) and comprising at least two pairs of contacts (58, 60, 62, 64), at least one pair (62, 64) of which is electrically connectable with at least one pair of contacts (26, 28) of the first contact module (16) by fitting the functional module (14) to the first contact module (16), and at least one second contact module (12, 112) fittable to the functional module (14) and comprising at least one pair of contacts (46, 48), which are electrically connectable with a pair of contacts (58, 60) of the functional module (14) by fitting the second contact module (12, 112) to the functional module (14), the contacts (46, 48) of the second contact module (12, 11

Abstract: A telecommunications module includes a housing, a plurality of contacts, which are exposed to allow the connection of wires herewith, and a connecting device for connecting at least some of the contacts with other contacts of the telecommunications module, wherein the connecting device is partially accommodated in the housing an d partially extends outside the housing.

Abstract: An assembly of a telecommunications module and at least one protection plug containing at least one protection component is characterized in that also the module itself contains at least one protection component.

Abstract: A functional module in the field of telecommunications has a front, a rear and four side faces, more than two first contacts and more than two second contacts, each first contact being connected with a second contact, the contacts being adapted to be connected with first and second contacts of at least one contact module. Contacts are adapted to connect wires therewith so as to establish electrical connection between the contacts of the functional module and the contacts of the contact module. In addition, a telecommunications module includes at least one functional module and at least one contact module. An assembly of two or more telecommunications modules and a kit of parts are described. A method of installing a telecommunications module include installing a contact module then fitting a functional module to the contact module.

Abstract: A telecommunications terminal module (10) is provided, having a splitter group or other electrical or electronic component (26) integrated in the terminal module (10), and two rows of contacts (18, 18?) with contacts (14, 14?,) to which cable cores (16) can be connected from the outside of the terminal module (10), the contacts (14) being connected with contacts (32) of the splitter group (26) inside the terminal module (10), and the contacts (14) being designed in such a way that they approach each other inside the terminal module (10), at least in parts, but are electrically separated from one another and are separately connected to the splitter group (26).

Abstract: A telecommunications terminal block includes at least one contact module. The contact module features a front side and a rear side, an upper side and a lower side, a first side and a second side opposite the first side. Furthermore, the contact module features at least one row of contacts extending between the first side and the second side. The contacts are exposed at the front side. For another thing, the terminal block includes wire guides arranged at the upper side and/or lower side of the contact module. The wire guides lead cable conductors from (file front side to the first side or second side. The wire guides are grouped together into arrays, the wire guides of which each lead to a single side. At least two arrays, a first array and a second array, of wire guides, adjoin each other and at least one row of contacts of each contact module and are assigned to this row of contacts. The wire guides of each such array lead to opposite sides.
