The present disclosure relates to modular plugs (100) including a housing (102,104) for holding a plurality of terminals that are engageable with contacts of a mating plug receptacle. The modular plug (100) further includes a slider latch (120) having a distal end portion (122) integrally formed with the housing, a proximal end portion (126) configured and adapted for operative engagement with the housing (102), and an intermediate portion (124) disposed between the distal end portion and the proximal end portion. The intermediate portion defines at least one flex point (124a, 124b). Accordingly, when the proximal end portion (126) of the slider latch (120) is operatively connected to the housing (102), the intermediate portion (124) of the slider latch (120) defines an anti-snag feature. The slider latch (120) facilitates locking and unlocking of the modular plug (100) with a plug receptacle when in a densely packed array.

L~invention concerne une fiche modulaire (100) comportant un logement (102, 104) destiné à abriter une pluralité de bornes susceptibles de s~enclencher sur des contacts d~une prise de fiche correspondante. La fiche modulaire (100) comporte en outre un élément de verrouillage coulissant (120) présentant une partie d~extrémité distale (122) solidaire du logement, une partie d~extrémité proximale (126) configurée et adaptée pour s~enclencher de façon fonctionnelle sur le logement (102), et une partie intermédiaire (124) située entre la partie d~extrémité distale et la partie d~extrémité proximale. La partie intermédiaire définit au moins un point de flexion (124a, 124b). De cette manière, lorsque la partie d~extrémité proximale (126) de l~élément de verrouillage coulissant (120) s~enclenche de façon fonctionnelle sur le logement (102), la partie intermédiaire (124) de l~élément de verrouillage coulissant (120) offre une protection anti-coincement. L~élément de verrouillage à coulisse (120) facilite le branchement et le débranchement de la fiche modulaire (100) et d~une prise de fiche dans un environnement à forte densité de composants.
