Abstract
A telephone network interface device adapted for limited access by telephone subscribers comprising a base on which there is a first and second set of terminals, the first set of terminals are adapted to be connected to the portion of a telephone subscriber loop not owned by the subscriber and the second set of terminals are adapted to be connected to the subscribers'"'"' premise wiring; a first jack (a first dielectric carrier and jack top housing), the first dielectric carrier having electrical contacts adapted to be mechanically and electrically engaged and disengaged with a plug; a second jack (a second dielectric carrier and jack top housing) and a plug both the plug and second dielectric carrier having electrical contacts therein adapted to be mechanically and electrically engaged and disengaged with one another; an electrical conductor electrically connecting the plug to the second set of terminals, an electrical conductor electrically connecting the first dielectric carrier to the second set of terminals, and an electrical conductor connecting the second dielectric carrier to the first set of terminals; a wall disposed between the first and second set of terminals; and, a shield covering the first but not the second set of terminals. A portion of the base is removably engaged, the removable portion containing affixed thereto the second set of terminals, the electrical conductor connecting the first dielectric carrier to the second set of terminals, the plug and the electrical conductor connecting the plug to the second set of terminals.
