Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
92 words
A modular jack for mounting on a circuit board, said modular jack comprising: a common-mode choke coil in which two wires are separately wound around a ring-shaped core in opposite directions, each of said wires having an end terminating as a contactor to be put in contact with a plug and an end terminating as a lead which provides direct electrical connection of the common-mode choke coil with a printed wiring of said circuit board; and a housing for housing said common mode choke coil, which housing is made of insulating material.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
