  • Patent number: 5938479
    Abstract: An electrical connector reduces cross talk between conductors carrying high frequency signals between input and output terminals. The connector has a lead frame with conductors that have generally parallel portions, but wherein some of the conductors have portions formed as out of the plane of the parallel portions as a hump. The humps have sections that provide spring contacts for engagement with a plug. The cross talk between specific conductors is further reduced by including capacitive coupling between selected conductors, and by positioning the conductors in desired locations relative to the conductors of other pairs of wires. The connector is provided with a load bar system for permitting easy coupling of the individual wires to input terminals.
