Tougher modula jacks
To reduce breakage of those little tabs, you could get some
heat-shrinkable tubing that is just barely big enough to make it over
the connector (You can stretch it a little by pushing it down over the
tip of a needle-nose pliers and forcing the jaws open slightly...) and
then heating the end of the tube that's away from the connector, to
shrink it. That gives you a sleeve you can slide down over the tab.
