Abstract
A micro-strip type connector is disclosed having a one-piece receptacle ground bus. The connector includes two parallel rows of signal contacts, one row on each side of the ground bus, the signal contacts and the bus bar having solder tails that extend through plated through holes in a substrate, such as a printed circuit board, and are soldered in place there. The one-piece receptacle ground bus includes a flat vertically disposed root section, a plurality of first contact beams in a row and extending from the top edge of the root section and a plurality of members extending from the bottom edge which are bent around through 180 degrees to be parallel with the root section and extending upwardly to form another row of second contact beams, the two rows of beams converging. A plurality of solder tails extend from the bottom edge of the root section.
