US Patent 10958005 Apparatus for direct cabled connection of fabric signals

Apparatuses for direct cabled connections of fabric signals—i.e., high-speed data signals exchanged between computer processors and peripheral devices. Specifically, varying apparatus configurations are outlined herein for minimizing, if not eliminating, the routing of these fabric signals through printed circuit boards, which tend to cause signal quality degradation due to phenomena such as the skin effect and dielectric loss.
