[origin: US4986768A] A telecommunications plug connector arrangement, comprising a connector, including a connector housing and a connector tongue. The connector supported by the connector housing and joined to the connector housing at a lower edge of the connector housing. The connector tongue has contact tracks. A connector/disconnector bank provided with parallel rows of clamping contact slots, each clamping contact slot including a contact element. A center row of plug openings with contact springs for receiving an assigned tongue with contact tracks is provided, the connector/disconnector bank being symmetrical about a longitudinal central axis. A projection connected to one side of the connector housing is provided, the projection extending beyond said lower edge of the connector housing. A cover is provided engaging and covering one row of the clamping contact slots, so that in the event of misinsertion of the connector, the cover and the projection cooperate thereby preventing a connector tongue from being positioned incorrectly in a corresponding plug opening.
