Claim:
An electrical contact insert for a cable connector assembly, comprising: a set of signal contacts, including at least two differential contact pairs arranged in juxtaposed manner; each of the differential contact pairs including a first signal contact and a second signal contact juxtaposed closely to each other; each of the first signal and second signal contacts having a base portion and a contact engaging portion, and a first side and a second side which are divergent from the base portion to an free end of the contact engaging portion such that a first distance between the base portion of two adjacent differential contact pairs of signal contacts is smaller than a second distance between the contact engaging portion of the same differential contact pairs of signal contacts, wherein a first gap formed between the contact engaging portions of the differential contact pair is equal to a second gap formed between the base portions of the same differential contact pair, wherein a grounding contact has a mating portion disposed between the contact engaging portions of the two differential contact pairs and a tail portion being apart from the base portions of the two differential contact pairs and arranged at a different level, wherein the signal contacts and the grounding contact are integrated with an insulator.
