Abstract
A telephone jack panel assembly suitable for modular digital installations which facilitates connection at a period of time when the frame upon which it is installed is already congested by previously installed connectors. As contrasted with conventional construction, the disclosed panel is provided with a rearwardly extending housing, which mounts plural multi-contact connectors which are interconnected to corresponding multi-contact jacks mounted upon the free ends of incoming telephone cables. Thus, only a relatively few plug connections need be made without the necessity of removing the jack from the main frame. The housings for each jack panel are so contoured as to form a horizontally oriented recess, one for each jack panel, when a plurality of such jack panels are assembled on the main frame in stacked relation.
