Abstract: A cable network repair control system including a server communicating with multiple call-handling clients in a trouble call center. The databases are used to automatically determine an associated network device for the customer who makes a trouble call. When a second call is received for a particular network device, an inferencing engine automatically operates to identify potential repairs crews and to control communication with them to ensure that optimum use of the repair crew time and quick repair. Various tables are generated dynamically and are used to update management status tables for reviewing of network repair status.

A terminal insert (20) is received in the terminal insert receiving space (12) and includes a substrate (3) having a plurality of conductive traces (30a-30d) and a plurality of terminals (21-28). One trace (30a) of the plurality of traces is aligned with only a selected terminal (21) attached on the second face (32) of the substrate while extends over a parallel terminal (22) and is electrically connected to another selected terminal (23) thereby establishing electrical coupling between said two selected terminals by said trace.

Abstract: An electrical connector of the present invention includes an insulative housing (10) and a contact insert (12) attached to the housing. The contact insert includes eight singnal contacts (26a-26h) and two grounding contacts (28a, 28b) arranged side by side and an upper printed substrate (30) and a lower printed substrate (32) sandwiching the singnal contacts and the grounding contacts therebetween. Two selected singnal contacts (26c, 26f) each are severed into three pieces but the other contacts (26a, 26b, 26d, 26e, 26g, and 26h) are not severed. Two end portions (58a, 58b; 56a, 56b) of the severed contacts are re-routed by conductive traces on the upper lower printed substrates, while the middle portions (58c, 56c) are grounded. Therefore, lengths inducing electrical capacitances between the severed contacts and the adjacent contacts can be reasonably reduced, thereby reducing crosstalk between the severed contacts and the adjacent contacts.
