Abstract:
1. A telecommunication socket structure comprising a rigid housing defining an internal cavity, an inner face of the housing being formed with channels for guiding a telecommunication plug to insert into the cavity of the socket and restricting the plug from laterally displacing, said socket structure being characterized by at least one resilient arm disposed in a predetermined position in the cavity near an opening of the cavity, the resilient arm having a free end formed with a stopper section for stopping the plug from entering the socket, whereby the free end can be laterally biased by external force relative to the cavity, permitting the plug to be inserted into the socket, wherein the free end of the resilient arm has a first projecting section and a second projecting section, the first projecting section being positioned in a relatively backward position in the cavity, while the second projecting section being positioned in a relatively forward position in the cavity, the first projecting section being formed with the stopper section facing the opening of the cavity, wherein the first and second projecting sections are adjacent to each other and the surfaces of the first and second projecting sections are inclined in reverse directions to form a connecting ridgeline.
