  • Patent number: 6579116
    Abstract: Modular plugs and jacks connect data signal transmission cables to computer components are provided with cross-talk reducing members surrounding or between parallel or near parallel sections of conductors in the plugs and jacks. Each cross-talk reducing member includes a dielectric body surrounding an irregular three dimensional conductive lattice made of a plurality of straight conductive carbon fiber rods. The lattice reduces cross-talk between signal conductors in the plugs and jacks.

  • Patent number: 6331126
    Abstract: A high speed lock cross talk modular jack for mating with a plug mounted on the end of a data transmission cable having four pairs of twisted conductors includes wire contacts having cantilever ends extending into a plug recess and contact pins extending below the plug body. Intermediate portions of the wire contacts extending from the cantilever ends to the pins are spread and angled outwardly and the intermediate portions of the center wire contacts cross over each other to reverse the positions of the pins for these contacts.
