<p>A selectable compatibility electrical connector assembly (31) for use in a high performance communication connection has a plug (36) and a jack (34) which mate together in the high performance mode. The plug (36) has a printed wiring board (PWB)(37) therein which is movable in longitudinal translation. The PWB (37) has, on a surface thereof printed circuitry (71) for altering the electrical characteristics and a plurality of conductive leads (68) in contact with the surface. The PWB (37) has a first position where the leads (68) are in contact with the circuitry and a second position where they contact no circuitry. The jack (34) has members (48,49) therein which engage the PWB and move it from the first position to the second position when the plug (36) is inserted into the jack (34) and which return the PWB (37) to the first position when the plug (36) is removed from the jack (34).</p> |
