Abstract

A stacked jack modular jack assembly is comprised of a multi-port housing. The housing includes LEDs for each port to monitor the condition of the signals. The upper port LEDs are mounted on LED modules, which are aligned with the housing. These modules also form the housing side walls for the receipt and alignment for jack subassemblies. The jack subassembly modules are pluggable into the multi-port housing to provide for the connector interface.
