I have been having a difficult time locating a 66 block with a telco connector on the side but where the wires from the connector attach to wire wrap pins on the back rather than being punched down on the front. I would like this because it saves another set of jaws I could use for cross connects. I know they are out there but can't find them or don't know the proper search term.

Don't tell me they stopped making them. I looked at what Siemon makes and they are definitely on the front in the pictures. There was no picture of Suttle.
 
I'm sure someone still makes them. I haven't seen them in use for a while.

I've seen references to a clip that adds two positions. The clip is like a modified bridging clip. If you can't locate a block with the wires spun down underneath, those clips might be a reasonable substitute if using a block where the female Amphenol Jack's wires are punched down along the end column(s).

Another option might be to run jumpers from the Amphenol block to a 66/25. That block would have a one in/three out configuration.

Found them finally, I was in a place that had them and they still had the label, Siemon M2-5W
