Abstract
A socket includes a socket body having a first surface and a second surface with a plurality of openings extending between the first and second surfaces. Sleeve assemblies are received in corresponding openings of the socket body. Each sleeve assembly includes a socket contact configured to interconnect a first electronic component and a second electronic component and each sleeve assembly includes a conductive sleeve extending along a majority of a length of the socket contact between the first and second electronic components. The conductive sleeve provides electrical shielding for the socket contact such that each socket contact is individually shielded from other socket contacts.
