An electrical connector includes a housing having a mating housing and a contact organizer. The mating housing has a mating slot configured to receive a mating connector having contact pads. The contact organizer has signal and ground contact channels separated by separating walls with inner ends between the separating walls. The contact organizer has lossy fillers at the inner ends of the ground contact channels. The lossy fillers are manufactured from lossy material capable of absorbing electrical resonance propagating through the housing. The electrical connector includes a contact assembly disposed in the housing with ground contacts and signal contacts interspersed between corresponding ground contacts in corresponding ground and signal contact channels of the contact organizer. The ground contacts are positioned adjacent the lossy fillers at the inner ends of the corresponding ground contact channels.
