ABSTRACT:
The current invention addresses a device to improve manufacturing of an outer shell modular connector which comprises overmold connectors. Each overmold connector comprises a circuit board to facilitate electrical connections. However, since each overmold connector provides multiple contact surfaces for specific electrical connections, the orientation of each circuit board with respect to the overmold connector is crucial for predetermined electrical connections. The outer shell modular connector in turn encases a number of the overmold connectors. The overmold connectors must be placed in a predetermined position and orientation within the outer shell modular connector so as to achieve desirable electrical connections. The predetermined orientation between the circuit board and the overmold connector is ascertained by a pair of polarization keys of the current invention. Similarly, another pair of the polarization keys ascertains the predetermined orientation between the overmold connector and the outer shell modular connector.
