Patent ID: 7711093

Claim:
A set of telecommunications test plugs comprising: a first plug housing; a first plug board including: a plurality of wire connection points for establishing electrical connection with N wires; a plurality of contact pads; a plurality of circuit traces including primary circuit traces establishing electrical connection between the wire connection points and the contact pads; said circuit traces being positioned to establish first predefined near end crosstalk between at least two pairs of wires, said first predefined near end crosstalk being at a first level of a first defined range; and a plurality of electrical contacts in electrical connection with the contact pads, the electrical contacts extending through slots in the first plug housing, the electrical contacts for making electrical contact with pins in an outlet; a second plug housing; a second plug board including: a plurality of wire connection points for establishing electrical connection with said N wires; a plurality of contact pads; a plurality of circuit traces including primary circuit traces establishing electrical connection between the wire connection points and the contact pads; said circuit traces being positioned to establish second predefined near end crosstalk between at least two pairs of wires, said second predefined near end crosstalk being at a second level of a second defined range, said second level being higher than said first level.
