Contact assembly.

摘要

A contact assembly with at least one signal contact and at least one ground contact, in particular for use in a connector or the like, comprises a support of resilient conductive material, an insulating intermediate layer provided on the support and at least one signal conductor supported on the insulating intermediate layer. The support is used as ground conductor and two or more adjacent contact pads are provided for each signal conductor or each group of signal conductors adjacent a first edge of the support. One contact pad is connected with the support and the other contact pad(s) is (are) connected to the respective signal conductors.
