<p>A transmission cable connector (10) is provided with a shell (44) which holds a cable (14) with conductive wires (12) joined to contacts (24) in a header (18) over a transition region either directly via extended portions of the wires or through the intermediary of a p.c. board (16). The shell (44) has an inner conductive layer (52,54) disposed a predetermined distance from the extended portions of the conductor wires of the cable, the contacts, the point of interconnection therebetween, and/or from the tracings on the surface of the board such that when the conductive layer of the shell is connected to a predetermined potential, electrical characteristics are imparted to the elements in the transition region that closely match the electrical characteristics of the cable.</p> |
