Embodiment Construction
[0051] The inventors recognize and favor connector designs that enhance the performance of high density interconnect systems, particularly interconnect systems carrying very high frequency signals necessary to support high data rates. The connector design provides effective shielding in the mating area of the two connectors. When two connectors are mated, the shield separates the mating parts of the conductive elements that carry separate signals. In some embodiments, the shield may substantially surround a mating portion of a signal-carrying conductive element, which may be a pair of conductive elements of a connector configured to carry a differential signal.
[0052] The inventors recognize and agree that such shielding, while effective at low frequencies, may not work as intended at high frequencies. To enable effective isolation of the signal conductors at high frequencies, the connectors may include a lossy material selectively positioned within a mating area of at ...
