Patent attributes
A connector for a communications system provides desired levels of crosstalk by controlling the positions and lengths of the wires. A plurality of insulation displacement contacts are movable between retracted positions and inserted positions extending into an internal chamber of the connector. A first insert disposed in the internal chamber has a front end proximal the front end of the plug housing. A second insert is partially disposed in the internal chamber and has a front end proximal the first insert rear end. Four pairs of wires extend from a cable sheath. Each pair of wires pass through one of the first, second, third and fourth channels of the second insert and through the first passageway of the first insert to the insulation displacement contacts in the internal chamber.
