Claim:
A connector plug for terminating a communication cable having a plurality of twisted pair conductors therein, said connector plug comprising: a housing; and a conductor organizing sled including: a cable termination end with septa for receiving conductors of the communication cable; a contact end having a plurality of grooves formed in an array for holding and orienting individual conductors in a particular alignment within said housing; and a center floor formed in a portion of said sled between said septa and said grooves, said center floor defining a surface against which a center twisted pair of the plurality of twisted pairs must abut when passing from said septa to said grooves, said center floor having a first neck-down portion sized to only permit the center twisted pair to pass therethrough while in a first stacked alignment against said center floor, such that the center twisted pair coming from said septa would pass through said first neck-down portion while in the first stacked alignment, then across said center floor.
