More Information
Summary:An electrical connector assembly (200) includes a housing (210) having a mating interface configured to be mated with a hermaphroditic mating electrical connector assembly. The housing includes an electrically conductive commoning member (218) having contact openings (222). Wafer assemblies (230) are coupled to the housing each having a leadframe (240), a wafer body (242) holding the leadframe, and a ground frame (244) providing electrical shielding for the leadframe. The signal contacts (206) are terminated to cables (202). The ground shields (208) are electrically connected to the commoning member. The mating ends (234) of the signal contacts and the ground shields form a hermaphroditic mating interface for mating with the hermaphroditic mating electrical connector assembly.
