Hello all, just want to confirm if this is considered a wire wrap pin board or something else?
Its from a Reliable Electric Company telephone distribution frame connector assembly R355

Did you email Chris on that? I would like to know myself. Yes. It sure seems as though it might be but the pins are in a plastic housing. Those just might end up as Connector Ends.
Here to learn like everybody else.

Those are definitely wrapped wires on nice gold plated pins. But I agree that's a lot of plastic in the shape of a connector for what a typical wire wrap pin board would be.

Maybe Lost will see this and chime in, otherwise Chris probably needs to make the call of where it'll land.

They’re connector ends as is. The weight ratio is more than 10:1.

You can remove the plastic and get pin board or even remove the pins and get some good gold pins. Though I’d just toss it in connectors and move on personally, unless the pins are real loose.

Ive got a similar board from a decommissioned telecom site. 2 big panels on each side but a ton of bare thick plastic in-between. Was just going to cut out the bare section and submit as connector ends.
