Printed circuit for modular plug

摘要

An electrical connector which incorporates a printed circuit substrate to accurately modify electrical signals on the cable terminated in the connector. The connector utilizes two distinct sets of contact terminals, the first set acting to terminate the cable and the substrate, the second set acting to terminate the substrate and couple the signals thereon to a mating external jack. The substrate includes circuit components electrically connected between the first and second sets of contact terminals that modify the signals in a known, predetermined manner.
