ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector for coupling a modular plug connector to a plurality of conductors has a housing with a plug receiving portion and a contact support portion. A plurality of spring contacts, housed within the plug receiving portion, are respectively electrically connected to a plurality of press-fit contacts, housed within the contact support portion. Each of the press-fit contacts are substantially flat with a press-fit tail, a body, and a bifurcated extension aligned colinearly along a longitudinal axis. The press-fit tail is quadrangular, formed with two pairs of indentations, and has substantially equal lengths between midpoints of opposed sides. The press-fit tail is manufactured by punching substantially v-shaped indentations on opposed sides.
