Abstract
A system for facilitating the design, installation and reconfiguration of physical connections in a network. One or more application modules interface with a chassis to create configurations for particular network needs. Different chassis can used for different network applications, such as a rack, housing or desk. A module tab, a faceplate protrusion and a mounting fastener provide a simple method for securing a module to the chassis through a chassis opening. The faceplate module is secured to the chassis and jacks are secured to the faceplate through the use of a jack plate. The jack plate fits through the opening of the chassis. The resulting connection module allows cables to come pre-terminated to a jack plate or cables can be assembled to a complete module. This allows a user to install jacks from the back of a rack or front of a rack.
