<p>A modular jack type connector (10) includes a dielectric housing (12) having a plug-receiving cavity (22) open at one end (18) of the housing. A plurality of terminals (34a,34b) are mounted on the housing, with spring beam contact portions (40) extending in cantilever fashion in a single row within the plug-receiving cavity. The contact portions extend from curved base portions (42) located in the housing. Tail portions (42a,42b) of the terminals project from the housing in two rows generally parallel to the single row of contact portions, such that each pair of adjacent terminals includes a tail portion in each row thereof. The terminals include straight intermediate sections (46a,46b) extending between the curved base portions and the tail portions, with the intermediate sections of each pair of adjacent terminals being substantially separated from each other in a direction transversely of the rows. The terminals include transversely inwardly bowed sections (48a,48b) joining the intermediate sections and the tail portions, with the inwardly bowed sections overlapping each other in a plane generally parallel to the rows. <IMAGE></p> |
