1. An electrical connector comprising:

  • (a) a front retaining means comprising a conductive shell having a peripheral flange and a pin receiving passageway;

    (b) a plurality of conductive pins extending through the passageway of the front retaining means;

    (c) a concave insulative rear retaining means having a plurality of apertures through which the conductive pins pass; and

    (d) a capacitive means comprising a printed wiring board having a plurality of central apertures and being interposed between said front retaining means and rear retaining means so as to receive the pins in said apertures, and said board having a component side oriented toward the rear retaining means, and a reverse side oriented toward the front retaining means and fixed to the peripheral flange thereof and a peripheral edge, and on the component side of said board there is a conductive strip adjacent the peripheral edge on said component side, and outwardly adjacent at least some of the central apertures there are conductive bands and a capacitor is positioned between at least some of said conductive bands and the conductive strip adjacent the peripheral edge, and on the reverse side of said board a non-conductive area surrounds at least some of the central apertures and said non-conductive areas are surrounded by conductive areas; and

    (e) a ferrite element filter means positioned within the rear insulating member.
