An electrical connector comprises an axial lead component and signal contacts. Each of the signal contacts has a contact area and a base formed opposite from the contact area, which is electrically connected to a lead end of the axial lead component. An insulative inner housing has a main body portion that receives the signal contacts. The main body portion has a substantially concave component housing region proximate the base of the signal contact that receives a main body of the axial lead component. An insulative spacer formed separate from the inner housing is attached to the main body portion proximate the component housing region. The spacer has a groove with a metal terminal plate disposed therein that is electrically connected to another lead end of the axial lead component. The spacer attached to the inner housing is selected according to the dimensions of the axial lead component.
