Abstract

See full text

Modular connector including a housing defining a cable-receiving cavity and having a lower wall, a tab at a front portion extending rearwardly and obliquely outward from the lower wall and an anti-snag member extending from the lower wall to engage with the tab to close a gap between the tab and the lower wall and prevent snagging of wires by the tab. The anti-snag member includes an arcuate portion defining a forward facing end at an interface between the arcuate portion and the lower wall. The connector also includes an arrangement for electrically coupling a cable when received in the cavity to electrical contacts in a mating connector. In the manufacturing process, the anti-snag member is formed as a part of the mold of the housing but in a planar form extending rearwardly from the lower wall and is then bent by heating into the arcuate form.
