Abstract:
In accordance with some embodiments of the present disclosure, a connector may include a housing and a pin housed in the housing and configured to electrically couple to a corresponding electrically-conductive conduit of a device comprising the connector. A body of the pin is formed of a material having a first conductivity. The pin may include a first portion between a proximal point of the pin and a medial point of the pin, and a second portion between the medial point of the pin and a distal point of the pin. The medial point of the pin is proximate to a point of electrical contact of the pin with another pin. The second portion is at least partially covered by a layer of material having a second conductivity that is lower than the first conductivity.

Claim (Index 8):
An information handling system comprising:\n an information handling resource; and a connector for transferring an information signal, coupled to the information handling resource and comprising: a housing; and a pin housed in the housing and configured to electrically couple to a corresponding electrically-conductive conduit of an information handling resource comprising the connector for transferring the information signal, wherein a body of the pin is formed of a material having a first conductivity, the pin comprising: a first portion between a proximal point of the pin and a medial point of the pin; and a second portion between the medial point of the pin and a distal point of the pin, the medial point of the pin being proximate to a point of electrical contact of the pin with another pin, wherein the second portion is at least partially covered by a layer of material with a thickness in the range of 1 to 5 micrometers, the layer of material having a second conductivity that is lower than the first conductivity and is operable to reduce losses due to resonance that would otherwise be generated during transfer of the information signal over the connector.
