Each row of ports includes at least 24 ports. The jacks also include electrical contacts corresponding to each of the ports. The testing box also includes a plurality of pairs of electrical connectors positioned adjacent the back plane. Each pair of electrical connectors includes an input connector for inputting signals into the test box and an output connector for outputting signals from the test box. The test box further includes a plurality of circuit boards positioned within the housing. The circuit boards include tracings for conveying signals from the input connectors to the jacks and for returning the signals from the jacks back to the output connectors.
