Abstract
There is disclosed a stacked electrical connector assembly (20) for mounting on a printed circuit board (108). The stacked electrical connector assembly includes a bracket (26) having first and second bracket members (90,96). The bracket has a shield member (28) electrically commoned with at least one of the first and second bracket members. A first electrical connector (22) is mounted on the first and second bracket members with the housing (30) thereof on a first side of the shield member (28). A second electrical connector (24) is mounted on the first and second bracket members with the housing (60) thereof on a second side of the shield member (28). The contacts (44,74) of each of the first and second electrical connectors are interconnectable with traces (110) on the printed circuit board when the assembly is mounted thereon. The shield member (28) extends at least partially between the housings (30,60) of the first and second connectors thereby shielding each of the first and second connectors from the other.
