A communication connector including a plug and jack configured to lessen potential for crosstalk caused by unintended mode conversion coupling along wire pairs connected to tine pair 2 (tines T1 and T2) and tine pair 4 (tines T7 and T8). In the plug, twisted pair 2, connected to tine pair 2, and twisted pair 4, connected to tine pair 4, exchange lateral positions with one another thereby reducing differential voltage therebetween and unwanted transmission line mode conversion coupling. In the jack, cross-members and insulators laterally exchange longitudinal routing of the jack tine pair 2 with the jack tine pair 4 for those portions extending away from the plug engagement area of the jack. In particular, the longitudinal routing between tine T1 and tine T8 are laterally exchanged and longitudinal routing between tine T2 and tine T7 are laterally exchanged.
