Abstract

A 110-style patch cord includes: a plug having opposed front and rear ends and a generally horizontal support surface; a plurality of electrical contacts mounted in the plug, each contact including a generally vertically oriented blade, the blades having exposed front edges positioned above the support surface and defining a first vertical plane; and a cable with a plurality of conductors, wherein each contact is electrically connected to a respective one of the conductors, the cable extending from the front end of the plug. At least one anti-snagging gusset is mounted on the support surface in front of the first plane.
