摘要

The present invention provides a device for interconnecting a series of computer network cables to a computer network analyzer. The device comprises an upper chassis and a lower chassis that are interconnected to one another in part via a pair of corresponding tracks and channels, and in part via mating interconnect members. The upper chassis includes a printed circuit board attached to its plate that contains a plurality of passive circuit components, including passive network cable connectors and other passive components, and incorporates standard network cable connectors into its rear panel. The lower chassis contains a printed circuit board with active switch and testing/analyzing components disposed thereon.
