Abstract
A high speed, high density electrical connector for use with printed circuit boards is described. The connector is in two pieces, each piece including columns of signal contacts and shield plates which interconnect when the two pieces are mated. The shield plates are disposed in each piece of the connector such that, when mated, the shield plates are substantially perpendicular to the shield plates in the other piece of the connector. The shields have a grounding arrangement that is adapted to control the electromagnetic fields for various system architectures, simultaneous switching configurations and signal speeds. Additionally, at least one piece of the connector is manufactured from wafers, with each ground plane and signal column injection molded into components which, when combined, form a wafer.
