Abstract

A modular jack connector (100) includes a contact module (2) having a paddle board (21) and a magnetic module (23). The magnetic module includes a number of magnetic cores (231) embedded in the paddle board, and a number of PCB layout traces (232, 233) arranged in each side face of the paddle board. The PCB layout traces on each side face includes a primary group of PCB layout traces (232a, 233a) having one group of tips (2322, 2331) extending to a position adjacent to corresponding magnetic core to form a magnetic field and another group of tips (2321, 2332) connected to a conductive section (2111, 2121) of the paddle board, and a secondary group of PCB layout traces (232b, 233b) having one group of tips (2323, 2333) extending to a position adjacent to corresponding magnetic core to form a magnetic field and another group of tips (2324, 2334) connected to vias of the paddle board.
