Electrically balanced connector assembly

An electrically balanced modular jack device comprising:

• a circuit board having circuitry including a plurality of conductive through holes, said conductive through holes being arranged and interconnected to define at least one capacitance;
• jack means disposed on said circuit board and connected by said circuitry to at least one of said conductive through holes defining said at least one capacitance;
• and
• termination block means disposed on said circuit board and connected by said circuitry to said jack means and to at least one of said conductive through holes defining said at least one capacitance;
• wherein said capacitance restores electrical balance between said jack means and said terminal block means.

An electrically balanced electrical connector comprising:

• a circuit board having circuitry including a plurality of conductive through holes, said conductive through holes being arranged and interconnected to define at least one capacitance;
• first connector means disposed on said circuit board and connected by said circuitry to at least one of said conductive through holes defining said at least one capacitance;
• and
• second connector means disposed on said circuit board and connected by said circuitry to said first connector means and to at least one of said conducted through holes defining said at least one capacitance;
• wherein said capacitance restores electrical balance between said first connector means and said second connector means.
