A scheme for compensating for both near-end (NEXT) and far-end (FEXT) crosstalk within a communication connector having first and second pairs of contact wires. A first stage of compensation includes capacitive coupling that corresponds in magnitude to a sum of offending capacitive and offending inductive crosstalk both of which originate from a mating connector. At a second stage of compensation, both (a) inductive coupling corresponding in magnitude to the offending inductive crosstalk, and (b) capacitive coupling corresponding in magnitude and of opposite polarity to the inductive coupling, are produced. In the disclosed embodiment, the first and the second compensation stages are implemented in an industry type RJ-45 communication jack to meet or surpass Category 6 NEXT/FEXT loss levels.
