International Classification:

H05K 702
H01R 1718
H01R 2122

US Classification:

361733

Abstract:

A digital communication network having a digital cross-connect system is described for facilitating the insulation, testing, monitoring, restoration and repair of digital telecommunication apparatus. The system includes a plurality of digital cross-connect modules 10. Each module 10 has an input jack 32, and output jack 34, cross-connect input jack 36 and cross-connect output jack 38 mounted on the front panel for providing front panel access. Each of the jacks is mounted to a printed circuit board having printed circuit board terminals. BNC or TNC coaxial connectors are mounted on the rear panel. The jacks and the connectors are interconnected via printed circuit board traces. Each of the modules has a switch structure for interconnecting jacks and for providing termination before break capability. Each of the jacks automatically interrupts the circuit when a coaxial plug is inserted into a respective jack to isolate the conductor.

International Classification:

H05K 714

US Classification:

361796

Abstract:

A telecommunication network cross-connect panel 10 is described having a chassis 14 for receiving insertable modules 12, 212. The chassis 14 has a back wall 24 with a backplane printed circuit board 34. An array of rear coaxial connectors are mounted to the backplane printed circuit board 34 in columns of four connectors 36, 38, 40 and 42 for terminating and cross-connecting two pieces of telecommunication equipment per column. Female DIN connector receptacles 44 are mounted on the front side of the board 34 at spaced slot locations with each receptacle 44 electrically connected to a corresponding four backplane connectors of a corresponding column. A plurality of modules 12 are insertable into the slots for interconnecting male DIN connector plugs 58 into corresponding aligned DIN connector receptacles 44. A plug 58 is mounted on a rear end of a module printed circuit board 50. A plurality of coaxial mini-WECO jacks are mounted to a front end of the printed circuit board 50 and electrically connected through the board 50 to the plugs 58.
