A via structure is disclosed to pass electronic signals from a first conductive pathway formed on a first outermost substrate of a multi-layer PCB to a second conductive pathway formed on a second outermost substrate of the multi-layer PCB. The via structure allows the electronic signals to pass from the first outermost substrate through one or more inner substrates to the second outermost substrate. The one or more inner substrates include one or more closed geometric structures to enclose the via structure.
