Abstract
A switching assembly for selectively connecting telephone cable to a test set or the like. A mounting panel provides connectors for receiving two twenty-five pair telephone cables, and a third connector for receiving another twenty-five pair cable. A set of switches provides for connecting the third connector to either the first or second connector. The switches are mounted in a row on a printed circuit board and are driven by a sliding actuator plate carried between the switches and the mounting panel, with a rotating knob driving the actuator plate to control the switches, and indicating which of the first and second connectors is being connected.
