Abstract

A modular jack yoke for use in mounting modular jacks to telephone terminal blocks and the like is presented. The yoke is a rectangular unit of solid construction with apertures at both ends to enable mounting of the yoke to a terminal block and bracket assembly, panel or other flat mounting surface. Located between the mounting apertures are two open areas for receiving modular jacks. The open areas include structure for mating the yoke with modular jacks. This mating structure effects snap locking of the modular jacks into position on the modular jack yoke.
