Abstract: A comb for making a branch connection to preexisting cabling in an information transmission network includes branch connection plugs fitted with contact fingers suitable for being inserted in an electrical junction strip for connecting the preexisting cabling to branch cabling. The electrical junction strip is designed to establish electrical continuity between inlet electrical cabling and outlet electrical cabling. The comb has at least two branch connection plugs secured to a single fixing plate, and handle means for said fixing plate. The junction strip includes jumpers used to provide continuity between inlet and outlet cabling. The branch connection plugs are used to redirect circuitry to branch cabling and following their insertion, the jumpers may be removed so that input lines are connected solely to branch lines.
