[techtalk] Biscuit jack?

[Wood, Mary]

Here's a hardware question I hope isn't too strange.  I'm doing a contracted
install tomorrow.  The call to do the job went something like this:

Company: "Can you do a frame relay install for us next Monday?"

Me:  <thought cloud> Frame Relay ... that's a networking term, right? No
matter.  I know how to RTFM. <end thought cloud> "Sure I can!  Piece of
cake!"

As I RTFM, I keep seeing this term pop up ... "Under the cash wrap you will
find *biscuit jacks* with all their patch cables attached ... you will find
a patch cable connected to the BB-01 port on the *biscuit jack* on the green
board..."  What the hell is a biscuit jack?  I'm guessing once I get there
and see the equipment, I'll figure it out.  But if someone can describe it
or better yet point me to a picture of one, this nerve-grating term will not
grate so much.  

Personally, I think they just made it up.

Thanks in advance.
