ABSTRACT:
A modular jack telephone type connector has a housing which is associated with a carrier on which metal conductors are mounted on a top surface of the carrier, a wire positioning fixture which has wire openings for inserting electrical wires and a cavity for receiving terminals of the conductors and is supported in a hole on the top carrier surface allowing the fixture to move vertically in the hole with respect to the carrier, vertical fins which are mounted on the carrier mates vertical grooves which are provided on an opposite side of the wire openings of the fixture for additional secure positioning, a lever which is pivoted at the housing, rotating toward or away from the carrier, and coupled to the fixture via an interlock mechanism in order to transmit a rotational lever motion to the vertical fixture motion. As the lever rotates toward the carrier and pushes the fixture downward, wires inserted into the fixture meets precisely terminals through the cavity of the fixture for insulation displacement electrical contacts without using special termination tools.
