1. A communications connector, comprising:

  • a plurality of conductive paths, each of which connects a respective one of a plurality of input terminals to a respective one of a plurality of output terminals, wherein each of the conductive paths is paired with another of the conductive paths, and each of the pairs are configured to transmit a differential signal through the connector;

    a first capacitor and a first inductor coupled in series between a first conductive path of a first of the differential pairs and a first conductive path of a second of the differential pairs to provide a first series inductor-capacitor circuit between the first conductive path of the first of the differential pairs and the first conductive path of the second of the differential pairs; and

    a second capacitor coupled between a first conductive path of a third of the differential pairs and a first node that is located between the first capacitor and the first inductor to provide a second series inductor-capacitor circuit between the first conductive path of the third of the differential pairs and the first conductive path of the second of the differential pairs.
