Claim:
1. A printed circuit board defining a front card edge, the printed circuit board comprising: a first linear array of vias including at least one first ground via and at least one first signal via; a second linear array of vias spaced from the first linear array along a first direction, the second linear array including at least one second ground via and at least one second signal via, wherein each of the first and second linear arrays of vias extends along a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction and parallel to the front card edge; a first electrical signal trace defining a first end that is electrically connected to the first signal via, a first region that extends along the second direction, and a second region that extends along the first direction; and a second electrical signal trace defining a first end that is electrically connected to the second signal via, a first region that extends along the second direction, and a second region that extends along the first direction, wherein:
