Abstract
Aspects of a distribution connecting module for teleconununications and data systems technology include a housing inside of which input and output contacts are arranged to be accessible from the exterior of the housing. The housing is provided with a cavity inside of which at least one printed circuit board is arranged. The input and output contacts are situated on the opposing faces of the housing. The input contacts are provided in the form of at least one connector strip with insulation displacement contacts. The input and output contacts can be detachably connected to the printed circuit board. The connector strip supporting the input contacts is detachably connected to the housing via a front part. When the connection between the front part and the housing is released, the connector strip, which is connected to the front part, is, together with the fork contacts, moved away from the printed circuit board. Attachment of the front part to the housing includes inserting a screw into an opening in the front part and then sliding the screw into a slotted region of the front part.
