COMPLIANT COMMUNICATIONS CONNECTORS

摘要

An apparatus for conveying signals between a communications card and a signal utilization device or network. In one form structures are provided for receiving one or more RJ series plugs and for making electrical connection with all the contacts on the plug and conveying any signals on the contacts to a communications device such as a telephone, facsimile machine, modem or a local area network adapter. A body (102) includes one or more recesses (106) which receive the plug. An expandable and stretchable membrane (114) isolates the contacts in the plug from electrical contact with an object in a surrounding environment.
