Abstract
A communication is jack adapted to connect a cable that has an exposed ground wire mesh. The communication jack includes a first member, a second member, and a clamping component. The second member and the first member are capable of pivotally rotating relatively to be combined to form a clamping area. The cable is gripped by the clamping component and the second member in the clamping area, and the clamping component and the second member keep in contact with the ground wire mesh of the cable. Thus, the cable is fixed and grounded by simply combining the first and second members.
Claims9
A communication jack, adapted to connect a cable that has a ground wire mesh laid on a surface of the cable from inner to outer, the communication jack comprising:
- a first member, having an operating slot;
- a second member, movably assembled with the first member, wherein the second member and the first member pivotally rotate relatively so as to be combined together to form a clamping area corresponding to the operating slot, and the cable passes through the clamping area and extends into a place between the first member and the second member;
- and
- a clamping component, displacedly disposed in the operating slot, wherein the clamping component normally extends into the clamping area to press against the cable, such that the second member and the clamping component work together to grip the cable and keep in contact with the ground wire mesh;
- wherein the second member is pivotally disposed on one side of the first member, the first member having a piercing terminal block provided so as to be assembled to the front end of the cable, and
- wherein the second member rotates towards the piercing terminal block so as to combine with the first member and cover the piercing terminal block and the front end of the cable;
- wherein the first member has a chamber located beside the operating slot, the piercing terminal block is disposed in the chamber, and the front end of the cable passes through the clamping area and extends into the chamber.
