Abstract From the Canadian patent

An extension cord for plug-in telephones comprises a line cord having a plug at one end for insertion in a telephone outlet and multi-outlet member on the other end. The multi-outlet member is in the form of a hollow boxlike member in the front of which are at least two apertures with a jack aligned with and behind each aperture for insertion of a plug. A back cover is attached to the multi-outlet member and the line cord enters through a slot in the cover. The jacks are wired in parallel to the line cord. A latch can be provided on the plug of the line cord and the aperture can be profiled to provide latch engaging formations. - 1 -
