Abstract:
1. Electrical socket with a housing, which has a space for inserting a connector and surrounds a contact module, the contact module comprising a number of electrical conductors and contact elements which can be contacted by associated plug contacts of the connector, two conductors respectively forming a pair of conductors for the transmission of a high-frequency electrical signal and at least two conductors intersecting, the contact module comprising a multi-layer electrical circuit board and the contact elements being inserted into the circuit board and respectively forming a contact spring by their end regions projecting beyond the circuit board and facing toward the space for the connector, and the circuit board carrying compensation capacitors for the capacitive coupling of conductors of different pairs of conductors, and the circuit board carrying conductor tracks which form the electrical conductors of at least two pairs of conductors in such a way that, in a first conductor track section, a first conductor track of a first pair of conductors is at a smaller distance from a first conductor track of the second pair of conductors than from the second conductor track of the second pair of conductors, whereas, in a second conductor track section, the first conductor track of the first pair of conductors is at a smaller distance from the second conductor track of the second pair of conductors than from the first conductor track of the second pair of conductors, wherein the conductor tracks of the first and second pairs of conductors intersect contactlessly at a common point of intersection, wherein the conductor tracks of the first and second pairs of conductors are aligned mirror-symmetrically in relation to one another.
