Abstract: A rectilinear communications connector configured for use in applications where space for exiting communications cables is extremely limited. The rectilinear communications connector of the present invention includes a base extending from an exit end of the connector and a cap attachable to the base. The base and cap defining a cavity in which an articulation section of the communications cable is enclosed and protected. The articulation section is a portion of the communications cable having a protective sheath covering the plurality of communications wires removed, thereby permitting the individual communication wires to be easily configured such that the communications cable exits the rectilinear communications connector at approximately 90 degrees with respect to the longitudinal axis of the communications connector.

Abstract: A small form factor wiring connector provides a two wire to two point connector with separate-hole insertion for two wires, by having two holes on the first casing side of the connector and a terminal connection on the opposite second side of the connector. The design works well for a pluggable or fixed-mounted connector. The separate wire insertion holes and the internal screw-driven clamping means with U-shaped wire clamp and U-shaped fixed terminal surfaces provides positive connections which will not easily loosen.
