Patent AT-E401683-T1: [Translated] ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR WITH IMPROVED CROSSTALK COMPENSATION

An electrical connector with improved crosstalk compensation is disclosed. By including at least one coupling with a different frequency dependency than other couplings in the connector, crosstalk compensation performance is improved over a greater frequency range. The different frequency dependency may, for example, be used to compensate for phase shifts caused by distances between compensation circuitry and the plug/jack interface. Embodiments for decreasing these distances are also enclosed.
