ABSTRACT:
A communication jack assembly suitable for high data rate applications, includes a wire board having conductive paths that extend between a jackwire terminal region at a first portion of the board and a wire-connection terminal region at a second portion of the board. A number of spring jackwires extend through the jackwire terminal region, to connect with a communication plug when placed in the jackwire terminal region. The jackwires connect at one end to corresponding conductive paths on the wire board, and the conductive paths form a part of at least one communications signal path when the plug is connected to the jackwires. The conductive paths may be configured to compensate for crosstalk otherwise developed in a signal path once the plug is mated with the jack. A dielectric terminal housing is formed to protect the wire-connection terminal region on top of the wire board, and a cover is formed to protect the connection terminal region on the bottom of the board. The wire board is captured between the housing and the cover when the housing and cover are joined to one another.
