ABSTRACT:
A shielded electrical jack connector comprises an insulator having a cavity therewithin and an aperture communicating with the cavity through an outer surface thereof. The aperture defines a receptacle for receipt of a plug connector therein. A modular jack insert having an insulative body and supporting a plurality of electrical contacts, each being terminated to an insulated conductor, is retentively received in the insulator. The contacts of the jack insert extend into the insulator cavity in cantilevered fashion for access to complementary contacts of the mateable plug connector. An electrically conductive shield is supported by the insulator, the shield having an opening through which the insulated conductors of the insert extend. An electrically conductive ground contact is supported by the insulator in engagement with the shield, the ground contact comprising a terminal extending into the cavity for engagement with the plug connector upon receipt thereof into the receptacle. The jack connector of the subject invention has particular use in an interconnective adapter, wherein the insulated conductors are wired selectively to pin contacts of another connector of different connective configuration.
