  • Patent number: 6482039
    Abstract: A modular jack assembly for connecting and switching computer network cables. The jack assembly includes at least one jack module with two sets of connectors for linking wires from cables to the module and at least one jack. The modules within jack assembly slide between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the two sets of connectors linked to cables are electrically connected to each other, allowing normal through signals transmission. In the second position, the electrical connection between the connector sets is broken and the plug contacts within each jack are linked to one of the sets of connectors, allowing pass-through connections, such as a cross-connection, to be made.

  • Patent number: 6352451
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a jack assembly including a jack mount having a front side and a rear side. The jack mount has top and bottom supports defining a jack receiving region that opens outward toward the front side of the jack mount. A jack of the assembly is adapted to be slidably mounted in the jack receiving region defined between the top and bottom supports of the jack mount. The jack includes a jack body formed of a dielectric material, and a plurality of electrically conductive tip and ring springs. The jack body defines a plurality of bores sized to receive plugs having tip and ring contacts. The tip springs are adapted to make electrical contact with the tip contacts of the plugs when the plugs are inserted within the bores, and the ring springs are adapted to make electrical contact with the ring contacts of the plugs when the plugs are inserted within the bores.
