A medical device assembly comprises a medical device comprising a shaft having proximal and distal end portions. The device further comprises a sensor at the distal end portion of the shaft that comprises first and second leads extending therefrom to the proximal end portion of the shaft. The device further comprises an electromechanical connector having a plurality of connection points at a first end thereof. First and second of the connection points are electrically connected to the first and second sensor leads, respectively. The connector further comprises an error loop segment electrically coupled to third and fourth connection points. The error loops segment assists in forming a compensation loop that can be used to correct for magnetic noise.
