The network connector module comprises a module housing of electrically insulating material wherein the module housing comprises at least two terminal receptacles that are arranged directly adjacent to each other, each of the terminal receptacles receives an electrical contact terminal. The network connector module comprises further an electrical shielding member made of cut and bent sheet metal, wherein the electrical shielding member at least partially surrounds the module housing. The electrical shielding member includes at least two contact elements for electrically contacting ground contacts of a corresponding counter connector. The contact elements are arranged lateral of the module housing, so as to be in a row with the electrical contact terminals. Further, the contact elements sandwich the electrical contact terminals.
