Electrical Connector

An electrical connector comprising:

• an insulative contact support having a body and a tongue extending from the body;
• a first signal contact having a first signal body portion and a first signal contact portion extending substantially orthogonal from a first end of the first signal body portion, the first signal contact portion positioned on a first surface of the tongue;
• a first ground contact positioned proximate to the first signal contact and having a first ground coupling portion and a pair of first ground contact portions extending substantially orthogonal from the first ground coupling portion, the pair of first ground contact portions stepped from each other such that one of the pair of first ground contact portions is positioned adjacent to the first signal contact portion on the first surface and another of the pair of first ground contact portions positioned opposite the first signal contact portion on a second surface of the tongue;
• a second signal contact positioned adjacent the first signal contact and having a second signal body portion and a second signal contact portion extending substantially orthogonal from a second end of the second signal body portion, the second signal contact portion positioned adjacent to the first signal contact portion on the first surface;
• and
• a second ground contact positioned adjacent to the second signal contact and having a second ground coupling portion and a pair of second ground contact portions extending substantially orthogonal from the second ground coupling portion, the pair of second ground contact portions stepped from each other such that one of the pair of second ground contact portions is positioned adjacent to the second signal contact portion on the first surface and another of the pair of second ground contact portions is positioned opposite the second signal contact portion on the second surface of the tongue.
