Abstract
An electrical connector has two mounting base portions with a cylindrical portion extending therebetween. The cylindrical portion is wrapped with a film having a plurality of conductive signal traces disposed on the outer surface thereof for interconnecting corresponding circuitry on two substrates. The inner surface of the film includes a screen printed ground plane thereon for partially shielding the signal traces, thereby preventing crosstalk between lines on the printed circuit boards. The first end of the film is attached to the body and the film is wrapped around the body until the second end overlaps the first end, which commons the ground traces disposed on the outer surface of the film to the ground plane disposed on the inner surface of the film.
