Abstract
A row-based electrical connector includes a connector housing that supports a plurality of electrical contacts that define broadside coupled differential signal pairs along a row direction. The electrical connector further includes conductive ground shields disposed between adjacent differential signal pairs, and a conductive plate in electrical communication with the ground shields and electrically isolated from the differential signal pairs.
