Modular plug having a circuit board

摘要

A modular plug electrical connector includes a housing and a circuit board having an array of circuit holes. Terminals in the housing have legs that extend into the circuit holes for electrical connection with the circuit board and mechanical retention of the circuit board to the housing. The circuit board carries contacts for terminating wires in a communications system. A stuffer cap has wire channels that receive the wires, and the stuffer cap is pivotable to urge the wires into engagement with the contacts. The wire channels are arranged in siamesed pairs that each receive a twisted wire pair.
