ABSTRACT:
A connector assembly includes a housing and contacts. The housing extends between mating and mounting interfaces. The mating and mounting interfaces have contact openings in a noise-reducing contact pattern. The contact openings in the pattern are arranged in pairs along respective contact lines. The contact lines of adjacent pairs are transverse to one another. The contacts extend through the contact openings and are arranged in the noise-reducing contact pattern through the housing between the mating and mounting interfaces to reduce at least one of electric noise and cross-talk in signals communicated by the contacts.
