Abstract
A connector element for telecommunications. The connector element includes a standardized group of contact terminals constructed to form a connection with corresponding terminals of a mating connector element. The connector element and the mating connector element together make up a connector for telecommunications. The connector element also includes a plurality of wire connector terminals, and leads that connect the contact terminals to the wire connector terminals. The leads are disposed and arranged in a three-dimensional manner, spaced not only laterally along the length of the connector, but also vertically. In one embodiment, the leads of the connector element are disposed and arranged so as to optimize the electrical transfer function of the connector by offsetting any coupling introduced by the mating connector element, so that the connector element when connected to the mating connector element forms a mated plug and jack connection having an optimized electrical performance.
