A normal-through jack that includes a housing, wherein a first and second coaxial conductor and a switch are enclosed within the housing. The housing includes a front portion and a back portion. The front portion has a first access port and a second access port extending therefrom, and the back portion has a first coaxial cable-connector and a second coaxial cable-connector extending therefrom. The first coaxial conductor extends between the first coaxial cable-connector and a first end of a resistor, wherein a second end of the resistor is coupled with the first access port. The second coaxial conductor extends between the second access port and the second coaxial cable-connector. The switch is adapted to provide an electrical connection between the first coaxial conductor and the second coaxial conductor.
