Abstract
A dual-path signal interconnect is provided. The interconnect can include a first signal trace, first and second solder pads positioned above and connected to the first signal trace, and a third solder pad. The second solder pad separates from the first solder pad. The third solder pad separates from the second solder pad and is connected to a second signal trace. The first and second solder pads are to allow a pin of a connector to be soldered to the first and second solder pads, such that, when the pin of the external connector is soldered, high-speed electrical signals from the first signal trace are routed to the connector. The second and third solder pads are to allow a conductor to be soldered to the second and third solder pads, such that, when the conductor is soldered, the high-speed electrical signals are routed to the second signal trace.
