Abstract
In a data processing system, a flexible cable includes a pattern of transmission lines formed thereon, the lines having a predetermined width. On the transmission lines are formed a first set of lands each for connecting a connection pin of an RJ45 connector and a second set of lands each for connecting a connection pin of a transmission line connector—each land being wider than a transmission line. A transition region is provided in each transmission line in the vicinity of the land, the width of the transition region increasing gradually from the line width to the land width as the transmission line approaches the pin.
