Abstract

A component for an electrical connector, said component bearing a field of electrically conducting signal elements (12) electrically insulated from each other and a field of electrically conducting shield elements (10), the shield elements being electrically interconnected with each other. For each of the signal elements (12), in any partial circumference extending over an angle (α) of more than 160 degrees from this signal element at least one of the shield element (10) is arranged that is closer to this signal element (12) than the any other signal element (12) of the field of signal elements (12). Each of these shield elements extends across an angle (β) of less than 160 degrees from the signal element (12). The number of shield elements (10) is the number of the signal elements (12) times 3 or less.
