A plug connector connected to the device side connector. A shorting assembly provided in the recess between the device side connector and the plug connector. The shorting assembly has a shorting member for shorting the contacts of the device side connector when the device side connector and the plug connector are not connected. A ferrite member is arranged within the shorting assembly and receives the contacts. The ferrite member is positioned proximate a device so that the ferrite member reduces noise in an electrical path that includes the device side connector and the plug connector.
