Summary:A high speed connector includes a plurality of wafer-style components (400) in which two columns of conductive terminals (420) are supported in an insulative support body, the body including an internal cavity (133) disposed between the two columns of conductive terminals. The terminals are arranged in horizontal pairs, and the internal cavity defines an air channel between each horizontal pair of terminals arranged in the two columns of terminals. The pairs of terminals are further aligned with each other so that horizontal faces of the terminals in each pair face each other to thereby promote broadside coupling between horizontal pairs of terminals. The components further include vertical castellations (440) between adjacent terminals in order to provide electrical isolation to adjacent pairs of terminals. L'invention porte sur un connecteur rapide comportant plusieurs composants (400) de type tranche comportant deux colonnes de bornes (420) conductrices placées dans un corps isolant comprenant une cavité (133) situées entre les deux colonnes de bornes. Les bornes sont disposées en paires horizontales et la cavité constitue un canal d'air séparant chacune des paires horizontales de bornes des deux colonnes. Les paires de bornes sont par ailleurs alignées entre elles de manière à ce que les faces horizontales de chaque paire soient en regard pour permettre de les coupler par leur côté large. Les composants comportent en outre des créneaux (440) verticaux séparant les bornes voisines de manière à assurer entre elles une isolation électrique
