Abstract
A flexible cable connector comprises an insulative housing, a plurality of terminals retained in the housing, a stuffer and a conductive shield partially surrounding the housing. A plurality of passageways is defined in the housing for receiving the terminals. Each terminal has a terminal member and a contact member for engaging with a mating connector. The flexible cable is inserted into the housing from a rear edge thereof and a signal pattern of the flexible cable is adapted to engage with the terminal members of the terminals. The shield forms a pressing plate to engage with a grounding pattern of the flexible cable. The stuffer is assembled in the housing for pressing against the pressing plate.
