| 20100144167 | Electrical Connector System - High-speed backplane connectors systems for mounting a substrate that are capable of operating at speeds of up to at least 25 Gbps, while in some implementations also providing pin densities of at least 50 pairs of electrical connectors per inch are disclosed. Implementations of the high-speed connector systems may provide ground shields and/or ground structures that substantially encapsulate electrical connector pairs, which may be differential electrical connector pairs, in a three-dimensional manner throughout a backplane footprint, a backplane connector, and a daughtercard footprint. These encapsulating ground shields and/or ground structures prevent undesirable propagation of non-traverse, longitudinal, and higher-order modes when the high-speed backplane connector systems operates at frequencies up to at least 30 GHz. | 06-10-2010 |

| 20110081809 | PRINTED CIRCUIT HAVING GROUND VIAS BETWEEN SIGNAL VIAS - A printed circuit includes a substrate having a pair of opposite sides. A signal via extends through at least one of the sides and at least partially through the substrate between the sides. Aggressor vias extend through at least one of the sides and at least partially through the substrate between the sides. The aggressor vias are arranged in a pattern around the signal via. Linear paths are defined between the signal via and the aggressor vias. At least some of the aggressor vias are arranged along the substrate directly adjacent the signal contact. Ground vias extend through at least one of the sides and at least partially through the substrate between the sides. The ground vias are arranged around the signal via. At least one ground via is positioned along each linear path between the signal via and each of the aggressor vias that is directly adjacent the signal via. | 04-07-2011 |
