it works! signals on layer 6 (blue) can be made properly diff-paired. only concern: both vias are now right hard-up against the board edge. but... again, their pins are directly above them, and they're leading into the metal case which is entirely shielded. so i *think* it's ok.
I agree as this is a mid-mount connector with metal body/shield, right?
yehyeh... but in one sample it had some sort of thing coming down to meet the board, but in the reel of 1500 they don't.
The metal extends down covering the board edge, doesn't it?
top and bottom (horizontally) yes, but vertically, no.
Sounds like a pretty cool accomplishment.
well i wouldn't have tried it if you hadn't pushed me
It probably looks nice, too!
it does.
That's one of things I've noticed, a good design tends to have an appealing appearance.
