ABSTRACT:
A modular electrical connector made from wafers. Each wafer contains one column of contact elements and is made separately. The wafers are of two different types, which snap together to form two row modules. The modules contain attachment features that allow them to be organized on a metal stiffener. Shield members can be optionally attached to each wafer so that the connector can be made in either a shielded or unshielded versions. In addition, each wafer includes windows through which selected contact elements can be cut to either improve the performance of the shields or to allow attachment of resistors.
