Embodiment Construction

[0030] With reference to the accompanying drawings, Figure 1-12 Various aspects of a typical adapter plug according to embodiments of the invention are shown. In the various figures, there is shown a typical adapter plug according to an embodiment of the present invention, which is not connected to the cable / wire and / or is not integrally formed therewith. Those of ordinary skill in the art can readily understand that the wiring of the typical adapter plug disclosed herein can be completed in a field environment using conventional equipment, such as conventional crimping tools. Preferred and typical wire / wiring arrangements for enhanced performance according to the present invention are also disclosed herein.

[0031] special reference figure 1 and figure 2 , a typical adapter plug 10 shown includes a cover 12 and a lower housing 14 . Cover 12 and lower housing 14 form substantially the same geometric shape so that, when mated, they form a figure 1 The substantially comp...

Abstract

A patch plug is provided that facilitates field installations thereof, e.g., using conventional equipment such as a conventional punch tool. Preferred patch plugs according to the present disclosure include a cover and a housing, each of which includes a hinge member to facilitate relative rotations of portions of the housing and cover. Rotational / pivotal motion of the cover and the housing relative to the disclosed hinge members facilitates establishing electrical connection with terminals positioned therewithin. The terminals that may be positioned in alternating pairs to provide improved return loss, and printed circuit boards are provided for further improved performance.

Description

[0001] Related Application Cross Reference [0002] This application claims priority to assigned Provisional Application Serial No. 60 / 349,911, filed January 28, 2002, and entitled "Adapter Plug Design and Method of Use." The entire contents of the aforementioned provisional application are hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0003] The invention relates to a novel design of an adapter plug, which makes it easier and more effective to connect a connector terminal with other equipment. Background of the invention [0004] The use of patch cords, such as patch plug designs for conventional cables comprising multiple twisted pairs is known. For example, Lucent Technologies (Morristown, NJ) proposes a patch plug / patch cable assembly formed from top and bottom patch plug housings. The top and bottom housings (also referred to as the "base" and "cover" housings) include cooperating pins / slots that, after the wires from the patch cords are properly positioned betw...
