An electrical connector includes a contact module having a first dielectric frame holding first conductors and a second dielectric frame holding second conductors stacked with the first dielectric frame to form the contact module. The first dielectric frame has insertion loss control windows defining air pockets exposing exposed portions of the corresponding first conductors to air. The size and shape of the insertion loss control windows control insertion loss along the first conductors. The second dielectric frame has insertion loss control windows defining air pockets exposing exposed portions of the corresponding second conductors to air. The size and shape of the insertion loss control windows control insertion loss along the second conductors. The insertion loss control windows of the second dielectric frame are aligned with and are open to the insertion loss control windows of the first dielectric frame.

A floating connector and a conductive terminal thereof are provided. The conductive terminal is integrally formed as a one piece structure, and includes a contacting segment, a fixing segment, and a buffering segment having two ends respectively connected to the contacting segment and the fixing segment. A longitudinal direction of the buffering segment and a longitudinal direction of the fixing segment have a first angle there-between less than ninety degrees. The buffering segment includes a first portion connected to the contacting segment, a second portion connected to the fixing segment, and two impedance matching portions defining a buffering hole. Two opposite ends of each of the two impedance matching portions are respectively connected to the first portion and the second portion. The buffering segment is configured to provide for an electrical current to travel there-through so as to generate a capacitance effect at the two impedance matching portions.

The present invention relates to a method for producing at least one high-frequency contact element or a high-frequency contact element arrangement comprising at least one such high-frequency contact element. The method includes producing a basic body part of each high-frequency contact element from a dielectric material by means of an additive manufacturing method, wherein the basic body part has a bushing between a first end and a second end of a longitudinal extent of the basic body part. In addition, the method includes coating the dielectric basic body part with an electrically conductive layer and removing the electrically conductive layer in a region surrounding the bushing at the first end and at the second end of the basic body part so as to form an electrically conductive coating on the outer conductor side and an electrically conductive coating on the inner conductor side. The present invention also relates to a high-frequency contact element or a high-frequency contact element arrangement.

An electrical connector includes a first set of conductors, a first overmolding in physical contact with a body portion of each of the first set of conductors, a second set of conductors, a second overmolding in physical contact with the body portion of each of the second set of conductors, and a spacer in contact with the first overmolding and the second overmolding. A gap is present between the spacer and at least one of the first set of conductors and a gap between the spacer and at least one of the second set of conductors.

An electrical connector includes an insulating body and multiple differential signal terminal pairs, each having two differential signal terminals. Each differential signal terminal has a main body portion, a strip connecting portion extending upward from an outer side of the main body portion, an elastic arm extending upward from the main body portion, and a contact portion extending upward from the elastic arm. A through slot runs through the elastic arm, forming an inner elastic arm and an outer elastic arm at two opposite sides of the through slot. The outer elastic arm is adjacent to the strip connecting portion. A consistent pitch is formed between the contact portions of the differential signal terminals. A first distance between two adjacent inner elastic arms in each differential signal terminal pair is less than a second distance between two adjacent outer elastic arms in two adjacent differential signal terminal pairs.
