A modular telephone connector for use in providing connection of a telephone to both telephone lines and a separate power source, has a bottom member for fastening to a wall or other member at a required telephone position and a top assembly which attaches to the bottom member with a flat cable gripped between. On attachment of the top assembly to the bottom member, insulation piercing terminals pierce the cable and make contact with conductors in the cable. The top assembly includes a circuit board having conductor patterns to which the insulation piercing terminals are connected, and also to which are connected terminals from a modular jack, or jacks, mounted in the top assembly. A cover clips over top assembly and bottom member.
