Abstract
A DSX jack LED activation system including a resilient dielectric structure secured within the jack body and positioned between the at least one electrical lead of the LED and one of the at least one ring spring contact and the at least one tip spring contact, an LED contact terminal secured within the jack body between the at least one electrical lead of the LED and the resilient dielectric structure, and such that when the jack plug is inserted into the plug aperture, the jack plug deflects one of the at least one ring spring contact and the at least one tip spring contact, into the resilient dielectric structure, which deflects the LED contact terminal into the at least one electrical lead of the LED. A DSX grounding system which includes a first ground terminal contact disposed between the first plug aperture and the second plug aperture, the first ground terminal contact with a first end and a second end, the second end being positioned at the rear end of the jack, the first end of the first ground terminal contact being disposed to make electrical contact with, and provide grounding for, the jack plugs inserted into the first plug aperture, and the first end of the first ground terminal contact also being disposed to make electrical contact with, and provide grounding for, the jack plugs inserted into the second plug aperture.
