The present disclosure generally relates to baseboards and methods of making and using baseboards. Some baseboards described herein include a foam body having a first major surface opposite and separated from a second major surface and a top surface opposite and separated from a bottom surface; the foam body including a foam having a density of between about 20 kg/mand about 100 kg/m; a rigid coating on one of the first or second major surfaces of the foam body; the rigid coating having a modulus of elasticity of between about 1000 MPa and about 10,000 MPa and a thickness of between about 200 to about 1000 micrometers; and optionally an adhesive layer on the other of the first or second major surfaces of the foam body. In some embodiments, the baseboards have a modulus of elasticity of at least 100 MPa. This ensures that they are sufficiently rigid while remaining hand-cuttable.

Adhesive baseboard

A telecommunications jack () is described for making electrical connection to a mating plug () such that the electrical signals travel along a signal path through the jack and the plug when connected. The telecommunications jack includes a first supporting printed circuit board () holding an array of front contacts () that are connectable to telecommunication wires and a second compensating printed circuit board () comprising electrical compensation components for reducing crosstalk. The front contacts have a section that is in the signal path and a section that is outside the signal path. At least one electrical compensation component of the second printed circuit board is electrically connected to at least one front contact in the signal path and another electrical compensation component is electrically connected to at least one front contact in the section outside of the signal path.

Telecommunication jack comprising a second compensating printed circuit board for reducing crosstalk

In the field of telecommunication and data transmission, a jack support structure for fixing a plurality of modular telecommunications jacks on a patch panel. The jack support structure has at least two parallel rows of jack cavities, and fixing means for fixing the jack support structure on a patch panel, characterized by the fixing means being positioned only between two adjacent rows.

Support structure for telecommunication jacks

A telecommunications connector () comprises an array of contacts () connectable to telecommunications wire pairs, the contacts being of a first type or a second type. The first type of contact is shaped so that its contact region (B) extends in a first direction and the second type of contact is shaped so that its contact region extends in an opposing direction. In an embodiment in the form of an RJ45 jack, to introduce crosstalk compensation, the contacts '' to '' in the inner zone of the array are alternately of the first and second types; and the contacts &#x201c;&#x201d; and &#x201c;&#x201d; of each pair in the remainder of the array are respectively of the same type but different from the adjacent contact in the inner zone.

Telecommunications connector

A shielding is () attachable at a rear side of a connector (), with which a cable () having a cable shielding () is connectable from the rear side, and has a connector shielding () and at least one extension () connectable with the cable shielding () and mountable to at least two different entry portions () of the connector shielding () and/or displaceable to at least two different entry portions () of the connector shielding () along the same.

Shielding attachable to a connector in the field of telecommunications, a combination of a connector and at least one shielding and a method of shielding a connector

A connector () in the field of telecommunications has contacts () with which wires are connectable inside the connector (), and at least three wire openings (), each opening () being adapted to accommodate at least two wires and exposed on an outside of the connector () distal from the contacts, the wire openings () being exposed in at least three different directions.
