Abstract
An electrical connector includes an insulative portion, a plurality of terminals supported by the insulative portion and are disposed in a row, and a lossy member. Each of the terminals includes a first end, a mounting end, and an intermediate portion. The lossy member includes a body portion elongated in a row direction and a plurality of projections extending from the body portion toward the first ends of a subset of the terminals. Each of the terminals includes a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface, with the first face including a first contact region. The projections of the lossy member are aligned with the second surfaces of the subset of terminals. Upon mating the electrical connector to a complementary connector, the terminals may deflect towards the projections of the lossy member, improving contact with the lossy member and thus improving its effectiveness.
