Multiple Connectors to One Box Side

[pcutt]

I'm trying to draw a simple schematic diagram of an electrical product to
show how wires are plugged into the different sides. The front has two wires
coming out of it, and the rear has five wires coming out of it. In addition,
I want to show the devices that are connected to the other ends of the wires.

The Block Diagram tool seems like it would be great to use, but it has a
limitation of allowing only one connection (i.e. wire) from a box to another
box. Is there a way to accomplish this with Visio?

Thanks!

Hi, there's no limitation like that, you can have as many connectors
as you like between shapes.
Which type of connector are you using?
What part of the block(s) are you trying to connect to?
I wonder what your Snap/Glue settings are?

You didn't say us if you know the connection point tool.
Because many people don't know it or don't know how to use it.
