Abstract
An electrical connector assembly has several sockets mounted in apertures in a ground plane. Each socket has a metal tube supporting wires that engage the surface of a pin inserted in the socket. Each socket is filtered by means a tubular capacitor one electrode of which is soldered in the aperture and the other electrode of which is electrically connected to the wires. An annular, ferrite inductor embraces the tube within the capacitor. Protection from a transient at any one of the sockets is provided by a transient protector device on a flexible circuit board joined to each socket.
