PCT No. PCT/US91/07660 Sec. 371 Date Dec. 12, 1991 Sec. 102(e) Date Dec. 12, 1991 PCT Filed Nov. 17, 1991A connector is described, of the type that has rows of contacts at each of its opposite mating face, with each contact at one face connected to a contact at the other face. In a connector that has at least three rows of contacts at each face, the contacts are connected through a flexible circuit board arrangement that has circuit board conductors. First and second groups of conductors (70, 76 in FIG. 4) that connect rows at the opposite faces extend in a zig-zag pattern along a first face of the flexible circuit board. A third group of conductors (84, FIG. 5) extend along a second face of the circuit board. The flexible circuit board has first and second end portions connected to the contacts and has a middle therebetween, with the middle (114, FIG. 2) curved along substantially half a cylinder around one side (110) of a spacer (66).
