  • Publication number: 20240079827
    Abstract: A connector for use with high-speed signals. The connector includes a connector subassembly that includes conductive elements held in a row by an insulative member. Each conductive element includes a mating end, a mounting end opposite the mating end, and an intermediate portion extending therebetween. The conductive elements include ground conductors dispersed between pairs of signal conductors. The ground conductors are wider than the signal conductors at the intermediate portions, and have same widths as the signal conductors at the ends. For each ground conductor, the intermediate portion has first and second portions separated by a slot until joining each other at the mating end. The insulative member holds the conductive elements at least partially through the slots of the ground conductors. Such a configuration meets signal integrity requirements in connectors designed for 64 Gbps and beyond, while conforming to a standard that constrains mating and mounting interfaces.
