Abstract

An electrical system including (1) a printed circuit board including first and second signal pads located on a top surface of the printed circuit board and arranged to transmit a first differential signal, first and second signal vias extending through the printed circuit board and arranged to transmit the first differential signal, a first signal trace located on the top surface of the printed circuit board and connecting the first signal pad and the first signal via, and a second signal trace located on the top surface of the printed circuit board and connecting the second signal pad and the second signal via; and (2) a connector including first and second signal contacts arranged to transmit the first differential signal. The first differential signal transmitted through the printed circuit board and the connector has a common central axis.
