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 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 3
Dependent Claim 55 words
A modular jack as claimed in claim 1, further including a separator for dividing said housing into two chamber, in one of said chambers said common-mode choke coil is mounted and into the other of said chambers said contactors of the wires are extended, and said leads of the wires are protruded from the housing.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 19 words
A modular jack as claimed in claim 1, in which said core comprises a pair of U-shaped core segments.
