Systems, methods and apparatuses involving a chip-to-chip communication channel, for reducing Far End Crosstalk (FEXT) through the novel concept of controlling FEXT magnitude and polarity of a component inside a channel, vias or within a connector by implementing broadside and edge couplings to offset cumulative FEXT in a channel, via-connector-via subsystem or a connector. The example implementations described herein can be applied to a chip-to-chip communication channel, mezzanine connectors, backplane connectors and any other connectors requiring via routing, and connector itself that can benefit from FEXT reduction.

Method and apparatus for reducing far-end crosstalk in electrical connectors

An intermediate connection electrical connector includes a plurality of blades and a supporting member for supporting the blades arranged in an arrangement direction. The supporting member includes a surrounding wall portion for surrounding the blades and a regulating portion for positioning the blades. The surrounding wall portion includes a side wall portion and an edge wall portion. The side wall portion is at least partially formed of an electromagnetic wave absorbing material. The regulating portion is disposed inside the surrounding wall portion to define a blade accommodating space for accommodating the blades.
