ABSTRACT:
An electrical coupler for interconnecting two modular telephone plugs includes a housing having two mating faces with openings for receiving the two modular telephone plugs. The terminals within the coupler comprise wire which is formed to include two resilient portions disposed adjacent to the modular plug openings. A terminal subassembly is disclosed wherein a plurality of solid conductors are aligned side-by-side and a web is molded over the span of wires such that when the wires are cut to the desired length, the integrally molded web forms a terminal subassembly for ease of installation of the terminals within the housing.
