COMMUNICATION PLUG CONNECTION TOOL

摘要

COMMUNICATION PLUG CONNECTION TOOL A tool connects plugs to the ends of communication wires and in particular is used with modular type communication plugs . The tool includes two relatively pivoted handle members that are restrained in the amount that they can be separated and which include a punch that will positively force connector tangs of a plug positioned in a provided receptacle in the tool into the ends of wires of a communication cord to properly and positively connect the individual wires of the cord to the proper terminal of the plug as the handles are squeezed. The tool also has knives which can be used for stripping a specified length from the end of the outer sheath from the insulated wires before inserting the wires into a plug carried in a close fitting receptacle in one of the handle members . The punch has separated lands or bars that separately bear against each contact tang of the plug and in this way force the connecting tang into the respective individual communication wire .
