Die Rückseite des Frontteils 2 ist als Rahmenteil 8 formgepreßt und bildet Verbindungsteile aus, die entsprechend geformte Teile des Gehäuses 22 der Komponenteneinheit 17 verbinden, wobei die Komponenteneinheit 17 eine Schnappverbindung mit der Rückseite des Frontteils 2 aufweist. Der Steckverbinder 12 ist auf der Rückseite des Zugangsdeckels 3 für die Teilnehmer befestigt. Diese Art der Anordnung ist eine besonders effektive modulare Anordnung und Konstruktion, die extrem einfach sowohl montiert als auch demontiert werden kann, z.B. im Fehlerfalle. Ferner kann der für den Teilnehmer zugängliche, entfernbare Zugangsdeckel 3 am Frontteil 2 in der in Figur 4 dargestellten Art und Weise positioniert werden. Dabei ist der Zugangsdeckel 3 derart angeordnet, daß dieser im unteren Bereich des Frontteils 2 in der formgepreßten Aufnahme 11 gehalten wird, wobei die in die Aufnahme 11 geführte Randleiste 10 zwischen den die Aufnahme 11 oben und unten begrenzenden Wandungsteilen eingeklemmt wird. Der Zugangsdeckel 3 wird in einer Anordnung aufgenommen, bei der der Teilnehmer den Zugangsdeckel 3 nicht manuell festhalten muß und beide Hände frei hat, um die Verdrahtung mit den Schneid-Klemm-Kontaktelementen (IDC-Kontakte) des Steckverbinders 12 zu verbinden.The rear of the front part 2 is a frame part 8 pressed and forms connecting parts, which accordingly molded parts of the housing 22 of the component unit 17 connect, the component unit 17 a snap connection to the back of the front part 2 has. The connector 12 is on the Back of the access cover 3 for the participants attached. This type of arrangement is special effective modular arrangement and construction that extremely easy to assemble and disassemble can be e.g. in the event of an error. Furthermore, the for removable access covers accessible to the participant 3 on the front part 2 in the manner shown in Figure 4 and positioned. Here is the Access cover 3 arranged so that this in lower area of the front part 2 in the compression-molded Recording 11 is held, the in the recording 11 led edge strip 10 between the receptacle 11 wall parts bounding at the top and bottom becomes. The access cover 3 is arranged added, where the participant has the access cover 3 does not have to hold on manually and both hands free has to do the wiring with the insulation displacement contact elements (IDC contacts) of the connector 12 too connect.
