<p>An electrical connector has a base (16) defining a plurality of aperture spaces therein. A plurality of contacts (24a, 24b, 28) are received and secured within the aperture spaces, and include signal contacts (24a, 24b) and ground contacts (28). In addition, a plurality of ground shields (60) are received and secured within the aperture spaces. The ground shields (60) are positioned to shield selected ones of the signal contacts (24a, 24b) from noise and/or crosstalk generated by other signal contacts (24a, 24b) within the base (16). Each ground shield has an electrical contact site at which the ground shield (60) is in physical and electrical contact with a ground contact (60). The electrical contact site is flexible.</p> |
