Abstract:
A RJ modular connector comprising:a housing defining a plug receiving section, and a terminal core receiving section; a terminal received in said terminal core receiving section and including a plurality of terminals; a first substrate provided having conductive trace thereon, electrical connection established between a third terminal and said conductive trace, and portion of said conductive trace being arranged to create a first electrical coupling between said third and first terminals thereby helping to balance a second electrical coupling between said third terminal and second terminal arranged between said third and first terminals; wherein said first substrate has a conductive loop corresponding to selected terminal to create electrical coupling therebetween and is located at a first surface opposite a second surface on which said terminal are attached thereto; wherein said first, second and third terminals are arranged in the same plane; wherein a portion of said conductive trace is in parallel to said first terminal; wherein said third terminal further establish a third electrical coupling between said third terminal and a fifth terminal by a second conductive trace formed on said substrate; wherein said third electrical coupling is used to balance a fourth coupling created between third terminal and a fourth terminal located between said third and fifth terminal; wherein said second conductive trace is electrically connected to said first conductive trace; wherein said first and second conductive traces are dielectrically surround by a grounding plane; wherein said RJ modular connector further including a sixth terminal establishing a fifth electrical coupling with respective to fourth terminal by means of a third conductive trace formed on a second substrate attached to said terminal and sandwiching said terminal between said first and second substrates; wherein said fifth electrical coupling is used to balance a sixth electrical coupling created between said sixth and fifth terminals; wherein said sixth terminal establishes a seventh electrical coupling with respect to an eighth terminal by means of a fourth conductive trace connected to said third conductive trace of said second substrate; wherein said seventh electrical coupling is used to balance an eighth electrical coupling created between said sixth terminal and a seventh terminal located between said sixth and eight terminals.
