A shielding cage () partially mounted to an opening () defined through a panel () for at least an electrical module. The shielding cage has a cage body () and a gasket () mounted around a front portion of the cage body. The cage body has a number of side walls () and a front opening () defined between the side walls for receiving the electrical module. The gasket () has a base () resisting against a side face of the panel, and a horizontal portion () extending from the base and into the opening of the panel for firmly abutting against the inner surface of the opening.

An electrical connector () includes an insulative housing () defining a receiving room () for receiving a mating connector, and a receiving cavity () below and separated from the receiving room for receiving a portion of the mating connector. A number of contacts are supported by said insulative housing, and arranged in distinct sets of upper and lower contacts () on opposing faces of said insulative housing. The upper and the lower contacts are inserted into the receiving room along a back-to-front direction. An elongated spacer () is supported by said insulative housing. The upper contacts are arranged by the elongated spacer.
