Abstract

A modular telecommunication jack adapter has a front part formed by at least one standard modular telephone jack and a rear part defined by a standard modular telephone plug. The front and rear parts are connected by a coupling member which defines a rearward extension of the modular jack. A plurality of resilient unitary spring wire conductors disposed within the adapter extend between the front part and the rear part and have forward end portions which define an in-line array of moveable contacts supported in cantilever position and parallel relation within the jack. The rear end portions of the resilient wire conductors are softened by annealing to receive an in-line array of spade contacts which terminate the conductors at the rear end of the plug. One or more of the conductors may be formed with a crossover formed within the connecting member.
