A standard D-sub connector is modified to connect a capacitor (64) between each of many contacts (14) and the grounded metal shell (16), in a construction of minimum parts. A flexible circuit (62) is provided with numerous metal-plated ground holes and signal holes, each ground hole connected to a capacitor terminal (142) and to a common ground plane (150), and each signal hole connected to a capacitor terminal (140) and to a contact (14). The flexible circuit has edge portions (81-84) that are bent to locate outer edge parts (152) of the ground plane against a flange (42) of the connector metal shell to which the ground plane is connected as by a solder joint (154).
