ABSTRACT:
An electronic equipment cabinet is shown having an integrated cover panel which provides a plurality of connector receptacle positions to which outside equipment may be connected. Connector contacts are snap locked into the receptacle positions. The connector receptacle contacts are automatically bridged when the mating connector plug is removed to short circuit the connector contacts. L-shaped bridging contacts maintain positional stability while L-shaped connector contacts permit direct insertion of the contacts into a printed circuit board within the equipment cabinet. Two unitary ground strips are fashioned to provide shielding shrouds around each of the plurality oconnector receptacles while attaching as single units to the cover panel and closing ground contact with the cabinet housing. This cabinet arrangement finds one use as a trunk access unit to interconnect a plurality of data stations into a local area ring network.
