<p>A transition circuit board (100) for transitioning a cable to a connector is provided. A circuit board has an outer surface (104) with a circuit trace (106), ground plane (120) and ground link (118) provided thereon. A cable pad (114) and a contact pad (116) are provided at opposite ends of the circuit trace. The ground link is electrically common with the ground plane and is located adjacent to, and separated by a space from, the circuit trace. An insulating coating (168) is provided over at least part of the circuit trace, the ground plane and the outer surface of the circuit board. The insulating coating has a mask aperture there-through exposing an uncoated portion of the circuit trace and the ground link. A conductive jumper material is provided on the uncoated portion of the circuit trace and the ground link to electrically join the circuit trace with the ground plane.</p> |
