BOARDMOUNT HEADER TO CABLE CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY

摘要

An electrical connector assembly for transmitting high speed electrical signals includes a header and a carrier. The header has a plurality of signal pins, a plurality of ground pins, and a supplemental ground contact. The carrier is configured to mate with the header. A plurality of electrical cable terminations are retained by the carrier, and the header and cable terminations are configured such that each of the plurality of electrical cable terminations makes electrical contact with one or more of the signal pins, ground pins, and supplemental ground contact when the header and carrier are in a mated configuration.
