Telecommunications modules (10) having contacts (12) adapted generally to
connect wires therewith and arranged in at least one row defining a row
direction (R), the contacts (12) comprising a length direction (L)
extending substantially perpendicular to the row direction (R), wherein a
projected length of at least one contact (12.3, 12.4) is smaller than the
projected length of at least one adjacent contact (12.1, 12.2, 12.5) of
the same row. Methods of using and making such modules are also provided.
