  jumper \jump"er\, v. t. (electronics)
     to insert a jumper[2] between the two contacts in (a
     circuit). See 2nd jumper.
     [PJC]

From The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.44 : [ gcide ]


  jumper \jump"er\, n.
     1. A thing that jumps; esp., any of various tools or other
        contrivances operating with a jumping motion; as, (Mining,
        Quarrying, etc.), an instrument for boring holes in rocks
        by percussion without hammering, consisting of a bar of
        iron with a chisel-edged steel tip at one or both ends,
        operated by striking it against the rock, turning it
        slightly with each blow.
        [Webster 1913 Suppl.]
  
     2. (Electronics) a short wire, or a small plastic object
        containing such a short wire, used to optionally connect
        or disconnect two points in an electronic circuit, so as
        to include or exclude portions of the circuit and thus
        modify the function of the circuit. Such jumpers are much
        used to adapt add-on circuit boards for different
        conditions or functions within a computer.
  
     Note: The contacts to which jumpers connect in commercially
           produced circuit boards are typically two closely
           spaced short stiff wires standing perpendicular to the
           plane of the circuit board, and the jumper has two
           holes with spacing identical to that of the contacts
           wires, so as to allow convenient insertion or removal
           of the jumper.
