ABSTRACT:
An aperture block is retractably or removably mounted to an electrical apparatus. The aperture block has an aperture extending therethrough. The aperture is configured to removably receive a physical/electrical media plug so that opposing ends of the media plug freely project from opposing side of the aperture block. A contact wire is mounted to the aperture block and is configured to bias against the media plug when the media plug is received within the aperture. A rotatable stirrup or lip is mounted to the aperture block to prevent passage of the media plug completely through the aperture block. The aperture is also configured with grooves that releasably capture a flexible retention clip mounted on the media plug, thereby enabling mechanical engagement between the media plug and the aperture block.
