Abstract: Systems and methods described herein are provided for electrically coupling conductors within a multilayered printed circuit board (PCB) using an interconnect formed along an outer surface of one or more stripline boards making up the multilayered PCB. The multilayered PCB may include first and second stripline boards each having multiple dielectric layers. A first conductor may be formed in the first stripline between the multiple dielectric layers and a second conductor may be formed in the second stripline between the multiple dielectric layers. The interconnect may be formed over an outer surface the dielectric layers such that the interconnect extends from the first conductor to the second conductor. An electrically conductive wall may be formed over the edge or side portion of the dielectric layers to form a cavity that encloses the interconnect and the outer surface of the multilayered PCB.
