A connector module collects or aggregates a group of cables having cable connectors, such as RJ45 connectors, into a single unit. With such aggregation, the connector module allows attachment or detachment of multiple cable connectors with multiple connector ports of a network interface circuit board at substantially the same time (e.g., during a single installation or removal procedure). The connector module, therefore, minimizes the amount time needed to install or remove individual cable relative to the network interface circuit board. Also, the connector module maintains the positioning of the connectors relative to the connector ports. Therefore, an operator can remove the connector module from the ports without having to track the positioning of individual cables and individual cable connectors relative to particular ports of the network interface circuit board.
