Abstract: Disclosed herein are various communications systems allowing for multiple contacts points between plug contacts in a communications plug and plug interface contacts (PICs) in a communications jack. In some disclosed implementations, a communications plug including a first and a second plug contact mated with a communications jack having a first and a second plug PIC may form a plurality of plug/jack interfaces. The plug/jack interfaces may form multiple current paths between the communications plug and the communications jack. When a signal propagates between the communications plug and the communications jack, it may be split in the communications plug between a first current path and a second current path, and recombined in the communications jack after traveling through the plurality of plug/jack interfaces.

Abstract: A high performance plug has a housing, eight contacts contained within the font of the housing, and a termination block that is symmetric about its axis. In one embodiment, the termination block has contact interfaces configure to electrically engage the plug contacts and arranged such that the contact interfaces which are connected to plug contacts 1-8, become connected to plug contacts 8-1 when the termination block is rotated 180 degrees. In one embodiment, the coupling from the paths for contact 3 to contacts 1, 2, 4, and 5, respectively, is the same as the coupling for contact 6 to contacts 7, 8, 5, and 4, respectively.

Abstract: A communications plug is described. The communications plug includes a plug housing and a cable manager partially enclosed within the plug housing. The cable manager has a first cable management section and a second cable management section connected to opposing ends of a bridge section. The first and second cable management sections are configured to fold together along at least one longitudinal axis of the cable manager around a portion of the cable before the cable manager is inserted into the plug housing.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to designs for network jacks which can be used for cable connectivity. In an embodiment, the present invention is an RJ45 jack that utilizes a thin dielectric film between two layers of PICs that provide crosstalk compensation by way of their geometry. Compensation is achieved by way of capacitor plates which sandwich a thin dielectric film. This allows for the layers of PICs to be in close proximity and achieve higher coupling where desired, allowing a greater amount of compensation to occur close to the plug/jack contact point. This can have the effect of moving compensation closer to the plug/jack contact point, which in turn may reduce the amount of compensation needed further along the data path.
