Abstract: A telecommunications plug includes a housing having an insertion portion sized to be received in a telecommunications jack, and a circuit board at least partially disposed within the housing. The circuit board includes a plurality of contacts exposed through the insertion portion to electrically connect to contact springs of the telecommunications jack and a plurality of wire connections receiving wires of a telecommunications cable. The plug further includes a switching mechanism movable relative to the circuit board and configured to switch between first and second positions, wherein the first and second positions selectably provide capacitive crosstalk between wire pairs within the plug.

Abstract: A telecommunications cassette (14, 114) that includes a body (30) with a front (32) and an opposite rear (34), two rows (38) of RJ45 jacks (20) disposed on the front (32), and two MRJ21 connectors (36) disposed on the rear (34). The two rows (38) of RJ45 jacks (20) are oriented opposite to one another, and the two rows of RJ45 jacks are offset from one another. The MRJ21 connectors (36) are oriented in the same direction, and the MR21 connectors (36) are vertically offset from one another. Two circuit boards (52, 56) are provided within the body (30), wherein one row (38, 39, 40) of RJ45 jacks (20) is connected to a respective one of the MRJ21 connectors (36), and wherein one of the circuit boards (50, 52, 56) includes a notch (66) for receiving one of the MRJ21 connectors (36, 37, 41).

Abstract: A cap for an electrical connector comprises a housing and a first cutting member with a first cutting blade. The housing includes an aperture for receiving a cable therethrough. The housing comprises at least a first wire guiding for guiding a first wire of the cable between the aperture and a first recess in a first outside wall of the housing. The first cutting member is arranged in a first slot of the housing and crosses the first wire guiding between the aperture and the first recess. The first cutting member is provided for cutting the first wire.
