A wiring connector is provided with counterpoise shielding. The connector comprises a shell and at least one pair of contacts, supported in the shell, for passing a signal and corresponding counterpoise. Each contact has an input interface, where it mates to either a wire bundle or a circuit board, and a mating connector interface, where it mates with another connector. The connector also comprises a radiation shield comprising ferrite particles embedded in a dielectric, overlying the contact pair. In one aspect, the shell includes a housing and a dielectric interposed between the contacts and the housing. Then, the radiation shield is embedded in the dielectric. In another aspect, the radiation shield is part of the housing.
