Abstract
A card edge connector includes an insulative elongated housing with two opposite end towers in the longitudinal direction, two rows of contacts disposed in the housing and opposite to each other in the transverse direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, and a pair of ejectors rotatably retained to the corresponding end towers, respectively. Each end tower unitarily forms a U-shaped structure for receiving a side edge region of the daughter card. A metallic U-shaped reinforcing piece is assembled upon each U-shaped structure in a compliance manner to directly confront the corresponding side edge of the daughter card in the longitudinal direction while being unexposed from the side edge region of the daughter card in the transverse direction.
