ABSTRACT:
A bridging link is disclosed for electrically connecting each of a selected pair of insulation displacement terminals of a first terminal array to a respective one of a corresponding pair of insulation displacement terminals of a second terminal array. The bridging link comprises a dielectric body including a rigid housing, a first pair of spaced apart electrical contact members projecting from a first region of the housing, and a second pair of spaced apart electrical contact members projecting from a second region of the housing which is spaced apart from the first region. The contact members of the first pair are electrically connected through the housing each to a respective one of the contact members of the second pair. Each contact member of the first pair may be inserted into a respective one of the selected pair of terminals, while each contact member of the second pair is inserted into a respective one of the corresponding pair of terminals, thereby electrically connecting terminals of the first array to terminals of the second array as desired. The bridging link is useful in distribution frames for telephone exchanges.
