Abstract

A modular jack (100) has a housing (1) and a plurality of terminals (5) received in the housing. The housing includes a main body (4), an insert module (2), and a presser (3). The main body defines a cavity (40), a pair of grooves (41), and a pair of slots (42). The insert module has a pair of lead sections (21) slidably received in the grooves and a pair of guide sections (20). The presser has a pair of channels (30) slidably receiving the guide sections of the insert module and a pair of latches (33) reliably engaging with the slots of the main body. The presser further has a pair of blocks (31) abutting against bottom edges of the guide sections.
