Abstract
A communication plug configured to be mated with a communication outlet. The plug has first contacts configured to physically contact and form electrical connections with second contacts of the outlet. The plug also includes a substrate with wire contacts and first, second, third, and fourth layers. The first layer includes first conductors connecting a first portion of the first contacts with a first portion of the wire contacts. The fourth layer includes second conductors connecting a second portion of the first contacts with a second portion of the wire contacts. The second layer includes a first plurality of capacitor plates electrically connected to first selected ones of the first contacts. The third layer includes a second plurality of capacitor plates electrically connected to second selected ones of the first contacts. Each of the first plurality of capacitor plates forms a capacitor with at least one of the second plurality of capacitor plates.
