Abstract
A connector assembly includes a housing and contact modules having signal contacts with signal pins and a ground shield providing electrical shielding for the signal contacts with ground pins. The connector assembly includes a conductive pin organizer coupled to the contact modules having a plurality of ground pin holes receiving ground pins and signal openings receiving signal pins. The conductive pin organizer substantially fills a space between the bottoms of the contact modules and the circuit board to provide electrical shielding for the signal pins between the bottoms of the contact modules and the circuit board.
