A card edge connector includes an insulating housing defining a mating slot, two rows of terminals and a grounding member. Each row of terminals includes grounding terminals and signal terminals. The grounding member includes a first grounding bar and a second grounding bar each defining an upper edge and a lower edge. A plurality of elastic tabs extends from the upper edge and contacting with corresponding grounding terminals. The first and second grounding sides are disposed vertically in a bottom and at an outer side of corresponding row of terminals, and extends along the longitudinal direction of the housing under a condition that the upper edges of the grounding sides are disposed below the inner bottom face of the mating slot. The upper edges are located below the inner bottom face of the mating slot.

Card edge connector

A card edge connector includes a longitudinal insulative housing, a number of terminals retained in the insulative housing, a pair of transparent members mounted to the insulative housing, and a metallic shell surrounding around the insulative housing. The insulative housing has two side walls extending along a longitudinal direction, two end walls connecting between the longitudinal ends of the two side walls and a center slot defined therebetween. The metallic shell includes two covering portions respectively located above the two side walls in a vertical direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. Each of the covering portions has a number of through-holes arranged above the transparent members to leak out the light transferred therefrom.

A card edge connector includes an insultive housing, a plurality of conductive terminals retained in the insultive housing and a metal frame retained in the insultive housing. The insultive housing defines two sidewalls extending along a longitudinal direction and two endwalls connected to the longitudinal ends of the sidewalls. The metal frame is integrally formed in the insulative housing and defines an elongated flat portion and a pair of fixing portions extending downwardly from both longitudinal ends of the flat portion, the flat portion is embedded into an upper portion of the insulative housing.
