Abstract

Abstract A distributing facility having of a plurality of distributor modules arranged in a frame, whereby every distributor module is composed of a guiding element for the feeding of laterally incoming and outgoing lines, a function element arranged on a front side thereof for the acceptance and wiring of line ends of the incoming and outgoing lines, and a shielded jack whose contacts are connected with individual terminals of the associated function element. The individual jacks can be randomly connected with each other by means of shunt lines provided with corresponding plugs.
