Abstract
A composite interface structure for jack-plug sockets for mounting to one end of a communication line to provide a plug structure and a jack structure simultaneously includes a body, a plurality of metal strips and a jack frame. The body has one end formed a plug structure, and another end connected the communication line and having a jack frame mounted thereon, and a plurality of longitudinal wire troughs on one side of the body between the two ends for housing the metal strips. The metal strips are embedded in the wire troughs to serve as external contacts of the communication line. The jack frame is straddled over the body and has a jack space formed therein to receive an external plug. The invention further may include a slide mechanism to allow the jack frame to move up or down relative to the body. The interface structure thus constructed is convenient to use and carry.
