Abstract
A connector or connector assembly includes a signal array having at least one shielded conductor having opposite ends and including an inner conductive element and an outer conductive element and a compressible interface element positioned proximate at least one of the opposite ends of the signal array. The interface element includes a layer of insulating material having a plurality of conductive elements extending through the insulating material layer. When compressed between the signal array and a signal-bearing component, the compressible interface element maintains the geometric arrangement of the axial conductive element and the outer conductive element to the signal-bearing component.
