Abstract: Example implementations described herein are directed to reducing far end cross talk (FEXT), including differential-to-differential far end crosstalk (DDFEXT) or single ended FEXT through generating and applying a delay shifter/inverter that is cascaded onto a target electrical system and shifts the even-mode and odd-mode propagation delay of a target electrical system to be substantially equal, which in turn reduces FEXT in the overall system.
