Abstract:
1. A three piece connector reducing Far End Crosstalk (FEXT), comprising: a first receptacle on a transmission end; a second receptacle on a receiving end; an interposer detachably connected to the first receptacle and to the second receptacle; and multiple differential pairs connected to the first receptacle and second receptacle; each differential pair comprising a positive signal line and a negative signal line wherein the positive signal line and the negative signal line of each of the multiple differential pairs are disposed at relative physical locations to each other; wherein polarity reversal is achieved by intersecting the positive signal line and the negative signal line of each differential pair undergoing polarity reversal only once within the interposer; wherein the interposer further comprises a wafer, the multiple differential pairs being disposed on the wafer, and wherein the polarity reversal occurs on the wafer; wherein multiple first ones of the multiple differential pairs undergo polarity reversal and multiple second ones of the multiple differential pairs do not undergo the polarity reversal, wherein each of the multiple first ones of the multiple differential pairs is placed adjacent to at least one of the multiple second ones of the multiple differential pairs not undergoing polarity reversal, such that every other one of the multiple differential pairs undergoes polarity reversal.
