Abstract
A modular distribution frame assembly for carrying telephone line terminal and protection blocks in a substantially factory-prewired condition. The frame has a base for securing to a floor support and a telescopic upper end for securing to an overhead support. The protection blocks are mounted on one side of the frame in a vertical array. The line terminal blocks are mounted on the other side of the frame in horizontal arrays. The frame includes horizontal channels which open only to the side on which the terminal blocks are mounted. The arrays of terminal blocks are mounted above and below each channel. Any one of the protection blocks may be connected to any one of the terminal blocks in one of the arrays. The horizontal channel may be used to receive wires which are used to jumper between the array of line terminal blocks which are connected to the protection blocks and the other array of terminal blocks mounted adjacent the channel.
