Abstract
Electrical connector receptacle of the type used in the telecommunications industry comprises a one-piece molded housing having a plug-receiving end and a plug-receiving opening extending into the plug-receiving end. A plurality of side-by-side conductors mounted in the housing have contact spring portions which extend from an internal sidewall of the plug-receiving opening adjacent to the plug-receiving end. These conductors extend over an external sidewall to the rearward end of the housing and across the rearward end past the other external sidewall, the ends of the conductors being intended to be inserted into holes in a circuit board and soldered to circuit board conductors. The housing has a frame portion which extends completely around the plug-receiving opening and has means at the rearward end for preventing insertion of a human finger into the plug-receiving end in a manner which could cause injury. A backwall is provided at the rearward end which prevents possible short circuiting of the conductors in the housing.
