International Classification:

H01R 2302

US Classification:

439344, 439131

Abstract:

An apparatus for conveying signals between a communications card and a signal utilization device or network. In one form (FIGS. ), structures are provided for receiving one or more RJ series plugs and for making electrical connection with at the contacts on the plug and conveying any signals on the contacts to a communications device such as a telephone, facsimile machine, modem, or a local area network adapter. A body ( ) includes one or more recesses ( ) which receive the plug. An expandable and stretchable membrane ( ) isolates the contacts in the plug from electrical contact with an object in a surrounding environment such that passage of current from one or more of the electrical contacts to an object present in the surrounding environment is prevented. Also provided (FIGS. ) is a replaceable direct access arrangement ( ) which is replaceably held within the communications device ( ).

Assignee:

Next Planet, Inc. - Los Angeles CA

International Classification:

H01R004/60

US Classification:

439/660000

Abstract:

A housing for a device including a first surface having a connector disposed thereon, the connector configured to mechanically couple to an oppositely mated connector on a second surface of a second device. The first surface also has a set of surface features disposed thereon, the set of surface features configured to engage an oppositely mirroring set of surface features on the second surface. When the device is stacked with the second device, the connector and the set of surface features of the first surface interact with the oppositely mated connector and the oppositely mirroring set of surface features on the second surface, respectively, to prevent vertical separation and horizontal dislocation between the device and the second device.
