An adapter assembly includes an elongated body, a switch, a sensor link, and an annular member. The elongated body includes a proximal portion configured to couple to a handle assembly and a distal portion configured to couple to a surgical loading unit. The switch is configured to be toggled in response to the surgical loading unit being coupled to the distal portion of the adapter assembly. The sensor link is disposed within the distal portion of the adapter assembly and biased toward a distal position. The sensor link is longitudinally movable between a proximal position and the distal position. The annular member is disposed within the distal portion and is rotatable between a first orientation, in which the annular member prevents distal movement of the sensor link, and a second orientation, in which the sensor link moves distally to toggle the switch.

An electrical supply system including: an extension module including a composite board having an anode layer and a cathode layer of an electrically conducting material, which anode layer and cathode layer are separated by an insulator of an electrically insulating material, the anode layer and the cathode layer each having a trench extending from a connection surface of the composite board and including a connection element, connector pins for the trenches of the extension module, each connector pin having a first complementary connection element for engaging the connection element of the trench of the composite board of a further extension module and a second complementary connection element for engaging the connection element of the trench of the composite board of the extension module, and a power supply capable of providing a constant voltage or a constant current between the anode layer and the cathode layer.

The present disclosure relates to a telecommunications jack including a housing having a port for receiving a plug. The jack also includes a plurality of contact springs adapted to make electrical contact with the plug when the plug is inserted into the port of the housing, and a plurality of wire termination contacts for terminating wires to the jack. The jack further includes a circuit board that electrically connects the contact springs to the wire termination contacts. The circuit board includes a multi-zone crosstalk compensation arrangement for reducing crosstalk at the jack.

An electrically-insulating wire container is a wire container for containing a plurality of conductors, and within which a plurality of separate, substantially parallel tubular cavities are defined. Each of the tubular cavities includes a forward open end in a forward end portion of the wire container, and a rear open or closed end in a rear end portion on an opposite side of the wire container. The wire container has an integrated structure. The wire container is flexible enough that when the conductors are inserted into the tubular cavities from the long, narrow, and hollow forward open ends, and the wire container is combined with a connector having a plurality of piercing contacts, the piercing contacts penetrate the wire container and make contact with the conductors.
