Abstract
An electrical connector includes an insulative housing () defining a port () and a contact module () inserted into the port. The contact module includes a set of contacts () received in the port, a ground component () for grounding and a horizontal PCB (). The horizontal PCB having a first conductive trace () disposed at the upper side of the horizontal PCB, a second conductive trace () disposed at the lower side of the horizontal PCB and a shielding layer positioned between the first and second conductive traces. The first and second conductive traces electrically connect with the set of contacts, respectively. The horizontal PCB has a ground section () electrically connecting with shielding layer to the ground component for grounding. The shield layer is provided to shield the crosstalk between the contacts that are provided as differential signal pairs.
