摘要

A shielded back plane connector comprises a header assembly (2) and a daughter board connector (4). The daughter board connector includes an upper and lower shield (22, 24) where the upper and lower shields (22, 24) include stamped windows (84) thereby forming passages for allowing structural ribs (32) of the housing to pass therethrough while providing a contact (82 for contact with grounding pins (48) disposed in the header assembly. A cross talk shield (100) can be positioned intermediate each of the terminal sub-assemblies (20) thereby reducing the cross talk between adjacent terminals. The shield (100) includes a contact portion for contacting the centre terminal in the shielded sub-assembly, for using the centre terminal as a ground terminal.
