Abstract
A jumper adapted to electrically connect adjacent ones of an array of uninsulated conductive substantially rigid vertical pins. The jumper is formed of resilient, electrically conductive sheet material and comprises a generally vertical plate portion having a free upper lengthwise edge and two generally vertical side edges, and a pin-retaining spring portion integrally connected lengthwise to the plate portion. The jumper further provides position stabilizing means comprising two arms, each arm being integrally connected to a side edge of the plate portion and bent away from the plate portion at an angle of about ninety degrees thereto. The arms are lengthwise spaced apart by a spacing adapted to clear the outer surfaces of the two adjacent pins to be connected, whereby the arms stabilize the jumper to resist tilting thereof and to prevent shorting other adjacent conductive pins.
