  • Patent number: 6619994
    Abstract: A jack plug of digital connector includes a jack plug with an optical fiber cable. The device is characterized in that the jack plug is composed of a front plug and a tail plug. A plug hole is disposed at the back part of the front plug. The tail plug has an insertion hole and on the front part of the tail plug possesses two clips at upper and bottom side respectively. The optical fiber cable picks through the insertion hole of the tail plug and then insert the tail plug into the plug hole of the front plug so as to make the two clips of the tail plug hold the optical fiber cable and fixed them at the back end of the front plug.
