An electrical connector for mounting to a printed circuit board (PCB) includes a dielectric housing ( ) having a mating portion ( ) and a mounting portion ( ), a plurality of terminals ( ) received in the housing, and a shell ( ) shielding the housing including a first shielding ( ) surrounding the mating portion and a second shielding ( ) engaging with the mounting portion. The second shielding is electrical connected with the first shielding and has an elongated shielding plate ( ) attached to a front surface of the mounting portion and a pair of holding legs extending from two ends of the shielding plates, the holding legs ( ) respectively attaching to two side surfaces of the mounting portion and extending downwardly.

Electrical connector having improved shielding

A Subscriber Identity Module connector ( ) includes an insulative housing ( ) having a front and a rear rows of recesses ( ), a plurality of terminals ( ) retained in the recesses with contact portions ( ) extending beyond a top surface of the housing for being horizontally exerted on by a SIM card ( ), and a grounding pin ( ) retained in a front portion of the recess of the rear row with a transitional portion ( ) extending upwardly and forwardly beyond the top surface of the housing for being horizontally exerted on by the SIM card. During insertion, a SIM card slides on the grounding pin and exerts horizontal force on the transitional portion of the grounding pin to form the working circuit after the contact pads of the card fully engage with the contact portions of the terminals.
