<p>A connector for communication systems includes first (A) and second (C) interfaces electrically coupled by a circuit (B). The first interface (A) has first (26), second (28), third (30) and sixth (36) primary terminals arranged in order in a first ordered array. The second interface (C) has a plurality of secondary (42,44,46,48---) terminals arranged in a second ordered array. The circuit (B) couples the primary terminals to the respective secondary terminals and cancels crosstalk induced across adjacent terminals. The circuit includes conductive paths (50,52,54,56) connecting the respective primary and secondary terminals. Sections (50a,54a) of first (50) and third (54) paths are in relatively close proximity to provide a first reactive coupling between those two paths. Sections (50b,56a) of the first (50) and sixth (56) paths are in relatively close proximity to provide a second reactive coupling between those two paths. The sections of the conductive paths have lengths, widths and spacings to cancel the crosstalk induced at the terminals. <IMAGE></p> |
