Why bother to create a new and incompatible connector, rather than using an existing one already used elsewhere? Is there something electrically different about the German telephone system that would necessitate this, or is there some other reason? –radiojon 07:35, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
The article says that F-Plugs do not have line a and line b looped through. If you have just one F socket, your incoming line goes to the F connector directly. If you have a NF socket, your incoming line goes first to the N connector and is then looped to the F connector. If you have a NFN socket, your incoming line goes first to the left N connector, then to the right N connector and then to the F connector which is in the middle. If you have more than one phone socket, your line is looped from the F connector to the next socket. Saying that only N-connectors had this looping is wrong; F-connectors have this, too, but only if there are several sockets. -- 84.148.124.7 2006-11-19 14:23
