ABSTRACT:
In a modular jack which is used as an information plug socket of a home bus system an insulating body has a valley extending across the central portion of its top face, end portions of two cables to be interconnected, with their braided shielding wires exposed and turned back, are inserted in the valley from opposite directions and placed one on the other, and a shielding lug is mounted on the end portions of the cables with its legs locked on both sides of the valley. The insulating body has formed therein a plurality of housing compartments at either side of the valley and contact terminals are housed in the housing compartments. A modular block is attached to the bottom side of the insulating body and contacts of the modular block are connected to the contact terminals.
