1. A holding frame for holding plug connector modules,
wherein said plug connector modules are insertable into the holding frame, and holding projections on the plug connector modules cooperate with holding recesses which are provided on opposite side parts of the holding frame, wherein the holding frame includes two frame halves articulatedly connected to each other at fastening ends of the holding frame, the holding frame being divided along a line parallel to the side parts of the holding frame, a hinged connection allowing the holding frame a plug-in state and a holding state, the frame halves in the plug-in state being pivoted in relation to each other about a longitudinal axis in such a way that one or more plug connector modules can be introduced between the side parts, and the frame halves in the holding state being pivoted in such a way relative to the plug-in state that one or more inserted plug connector modules have a form-locking connection with the holding frame, wherein the holding frame has an elastic fixing element adapted to releaseably fix the frame halves in the plug-in state and the holding state, wherein a restoring force of the elastic fixing element must be overcome at least in order to release the fixing and/or to switch between the plug-in state and the holding state. |
