Abstract
A connector module, which permits termination of cross-connect wires on one surface and cable wires on an opposite surface, has an internal switch configuration which is normally open, such that the cross-connect wires are normally not connected to the cable wires. The module exhibits a generally 'Z' shaped configuration which permits test access, jumper insertion, and protector mounting on either surface.
