Abstract
A communication cable connector assembly includes a first connector, a second connector and a first breakout connector. The first connector has a plurality of first terminals. The second connector has a plurality of second terminals with a plurality of adjacent pairs of terminals. Each of the plurality of second terminals mate with a corresponding one of the plurality of first terminals. A plurality of the adjacent pairs of terminals define breakout terminal pairs which are non-adjacent relative to each other. A first breakout connector associated with the second connector has a plurality of third terminals associated with the breakout terminal pairs of the second connector.
