Appl. No.:

12/401587

Inventors:

Jeffrey Alan Poulsen - Edmonds WA, US
Jason Erickson - Bothell WA, US
Jeffrey P. Seefried - Lake Stevens WA, US

Assignee:

Leviton Manufacturing Co., Inc. - Melville NY

International Classification:

H01R 24/00

US Classification:

439676, 439941

Abstract:

A communications outlet includes eight outlet tines positioned adjacent one another and defining four pairs of outlet tines. The fourth and fifth outlet tines define a first pair, the first and second outlet tines define a second pair, the third and sixth outlet tines define a third pair, and the seventh and eighth outlet tines define a fourth pair. Each outlet tine has a free end near to which a plug contact is adapted to touch and each outlet tine has a fixed end coupled through a corresponding conductive trace to a corresponding conductive wire termination contact. The communications outlet includes a first modal alien crosstalk compensation stage connected to the outlet tines associated with the second, third, and fourth pairs. The first modal alien crosstalk compensation stage includes independent capacitive components operably responsive to differential signals on the third pair to introduce common mode signals onto the second and fourth pairs that have the opposite polarity of common mode signals on the second and fourth pairs at points where the plug contacts connect with the outlet tines.

International Classification:

H01R 24/00

US Classification:

439676, 439949

Abstract:

A communications outlet includes eight outlet tines positioned adjacent to one another and define four pairs of outlet tines. The fourth and fifth outlet tines define a first pair, the first and second outlet tines define a second pair, the third and sixth outlet tines define a third pair, and the seventh and eighth outlet tines define a fourth pair. Each outlet tine has a free end near which a plug tine is adapted to contact the outlet tine and each outlet tine has a fixed end coupled through a corresponding conductive tine to a corresponding electrical contact. The communications outlet includes an internal crosstalk compensation stage having a plurality of conductive fingers. Each conductive finger is physically connected to a corresponding one of the outlet tines proximate the free ends of the tines. The internal crosstalk compensation stage is operable to provide positive compensation for internal crosstalk between pairs corresponding to the tines to which the conductive fingers of the flexible printed circuit board are attached.

Assignee:

Leviton Manufacturing Co., Inc. - Melville NY

International Classification:

H01R 24/00

US Classification:

439676

Abstract:

A plug including first, second, third, and fourth pairs of contacts connected to first, second, third, and fourth wire pairs, respectively. The first pair of contacts is positioned between first and second contacts of the third pair of contacts, the second pair of contacts is positioned alongside the first contact, and the fourth pair of contacts is positioned alongside the second contact. A first and second capacitive coupling member each including a sleeve and contact member are spaced from the plug contacts. The second wire pair extends through the sleeve of the first coupling member and the contact member of the first coupling member is electrically connected to the wire connected to the second contact. The fourth wire pair extends through the sleeve of the second coupling member and the contact member of the first coupling member is electrically connected to the wire connected to the first contact.

International Classification:

H01R 12/00

US Classification:

439 761, 439676, 439941

Abstract:

A substrate operable to construct a male-type connector, a female-type connector, and/or a multi-outlet module. The substrate has a plurality of circuits and an edge card male connector including contacts for each circuit. For each circuit, the substrate has a ground plane connected to one or more of the contacts for the circuit. The ground planes may be implemented as localized, electrically floating, isolated ground planes. The substrate may include multiple layers upon which portions of the circuits and ground planes may be disposed. The ground plane corresponding to each of the plurality of circuits may be located in close proximity to conductive elements of the circuit so as to provide a localized common ground to which energy can be conveyed from the conductive elements to thereby limit an amount of energy radiated outwardly from the conductive elements to surrounding conductors.
