Abstract

The disclosure relates to a holding frame into which plug-in connector modules are insertable, wherein the holding frame comprises or consists of two interconnectable halves, a first half and a second half, wherein the holding frame has at least one locking element, and wherein the halves are alignable and fixable in at least two positions with respect to each other via the locking element. The locking element is fastened under prestress to the halves and the prestress causes the exertion of a force which fixes the holding frame either in an open position or in a closed position.
