Abstract
A connector plug terminates a communication cable having a plurality of conductors therein. The plug includes a conductor organizing sled, which includes a plurality of channels for separating conductive wires. The sled is formed of at least two materials, including a first material being a conductive material and a second material being a dielectric material. The first material may be a metal and the second material may be a plastic. In one embodiment, the first material is impregnated within at least a portion of the second material. In another embodiment, the first material is formed as a layer on an outer surface of at least a portion of the second material.
