A contact terminal includes a terminal shield, a contact carrier, and a contact element for conducting electrical signals of a high-frequency data transmission. The contact carrier retains the contact element in a fixed position within the terminal shield. The terminal shield has a discontinuity that affects an impedance of the contact element. At least one of the contact carrier and the contact element has an impedance control feature configured to adjust the impedance of the contact element to a predefined desired value according to a frequency of the data transmission.
