摘要: A modular receptacle assembly includes integral optical indication. The a module housing one or more receptacles configured to releasably receive, in an insertion direction, leading portion of plug. light pipe having proximal and distal ends, is disposed the footprint module. end coupled receptacle, source. radiate onto plug within said receptacle. An actuator selectively operate pipe.
