Abstract
A connector for use with high-speed signals. The connector includes a connector subassembly having conductors disposed in groups and a shielding shell at least partially encircling each group. Each conductor includes a mating end and a mounting end opposite the mating end. The shielding shell includes openings that expose contact surfaces of the conductors at the ends. The shielding shell is formed by attaching a second shell part to a first shell part. The first shell part has plateaus and valleys, and the second shell part is attached to the first shell part at the valleys, such that tubular structures are formed. The shielding shell includes contact surfaces disposed on the same planes with the contact surfaces of the conductors at the ends, respectively. Such a configuration meets signal integrity requirements in connectors designed for 64 Gbps and beyond, while conforming to a standard that constrains mating and mounting interfaces.
