ABSTRACT:
A rotatable electrical connector for use with telephone cords comprises first and second connector members which are connected together for rotation with respect to each other about an axis of rotation. A plurality of concentric electrically conductive contact rings are provided on one of the connector members about the axis of rotation in radially spaced relationship so as to face the other connector member. The other connector member has a plurality of sliding electrical contacts in electrical contact with respective ones of the plurality of concentric electrically conductive rings on the one connector members so as to remain in electrical contact with relative rotation of the connector members. The plurality of concentric conductive contact rings are located in a single plane which is perpendicular to the axis of rotation so that the connector is compact axially.
