Abstract

Modular plugs and jacks connect data signal transmission cables to computer components are provided with cross-talk reducing members surrounding or between parallel or near parallel sections of conductors in the plugs and jacks. Each cross-talk reducing member includes a dielectric body surrounding an irregular three dimensional conductive lattice made of a plurality of straight conductive carbon fiber rods. The lattice reduces cross-talk between signal conductors in the plugs and jacks.
