Abstract
A connector adapter for electrically receiving a card connector having a shielding, comprises an insulative body portion defining a mating face and a soldering face adjacent to the mating face. A plurality of contacts are received in passageways defined in the body portion between the mating and soldering faces. A concave surface is defined in a top face of the body portion opposite the soldering face and forms two hook devices upwardly extending therefrom symmetrical about a central line of the body portion. A metal cover forms an elastic tab on a central portion thereof and two holes symmetrical about the elastic tab for engaging with the hook devices thereby fixing the metal cover to the top face of the body portion. A reception space is defined between the metal cover and the concave surface for receiving the shielding of the card connector.
