Abstract
A connector includes a housing, and contacts received in the housing. The contacts include first contacts and second contacts alternatively arranged with the first contacts. The first contacts include a ground contact and two pairs of differential pair. Each first contact includes a first contacting portion, a first termination portion extending beyond the housing and a first intermediate portion. The second contact includes a second contacting portion, a second termination portion extending beyond the housing and a second intermediate portion. The distance between the first intermediate portion of the differential pair of the first conductive contact and the second intermediate portion of and adjacent second conductive contact is bigger than or equal to the width of the first intermediate portion of the differential pair, and the width of the first intermediate portion is bigger than that of the second intermediate portion of the second conductive contact.
