Examples of electrical connectors that incorporate electromagnetic interference (EMI) absorbing materials are described. In one example, an electrical connector includes a first pair of conductors, a second pair of conductors, and electromagnetic interference (EMI) absorbing material at least partially separating the first pair of conductors from the second pair of conductors. Each of the first and second pairs of conductors defines one of a differential pair or a signal conductor/ground pair. The EMI absorbing material may be configured to attenuate, primarily by absorption, an electromagnetic field generated due to transmission of electrical signals via one of the first pair and second pair of conductors to reduce the electromagnetic inference from the electromagnetic field on the other of the first pair and second pair of conductors.
