Abstract

A communications card (70) capable of being mounted in electrical communication with a computer has formed therethrough an aperture (86) so sized and shaped as to be capable of receiving an electrical media connector (38). The cross section of the media connector (38) is greater than the thickness of the communications card (70). The media connector has a biased retention clip (116), a contact pin block (112), and contact pins (114). The retention clip is capable of being manipulated to remove the connector from the aperture (86) in the communications card (70), the aperture being in contact with a plurality of contact wires (124) fixed within the card (70).
The aperture (86) is formed either within the card (70) itself, or within a detachable aperture block (72) which is capable of attachment to the card (70).
