We present new results on the continuum extrapolation of the vector current correlation function in the deconfined phase for three temperatures close to the critical temperature utilizing quenched clover improved Wilson fermions and light quark masses. A systematic analysis on multiple lattice spacing allows to perform the continuum limit of the correlation function and to extract spectral properties in the continuum limit. These results provide constraints for the electrical conductivity and the thermal dilepton rates in the quark gluon plasma for the given temperature range. In addition results on the continuum extrapolation at finite momenta related to thermal photon rates are presented.
