ABSTRACT:
A socket for a printed circuit board to permit the selective connection and disconnection of jumper cables from such boards. The socket has a tail portion for insertion into a plated through hole in a board and attachment to the underside thereof. Two spaced apart, generally parallel arms provide a cavity for the selectively releasable receipt of a jumper conductor. Each arm has an inwardly directed intermediate portion and an outwardly directed distal end to aid in inserting the conductor into the cavity and preventing its unwanted withdrawal. A downturned end of the inturned opposite end of one of the arms cooperates with the base to position the socket and maintain its stability.
