Abstract
An electrical connector comprises an elongate insulative housing, a number of terminals received in the housing, and a metallic shield surrounding a front end of the housing. The housing has a body portion consisting of a top wall, a bottom wall, a front wall, a pair of sidewalls and a receiving cavity, and a mating board. A gap separates each sidewall from the front wall and downwardly extends through the housing. Each sidewall defines a channel communicating with the gap, a ditch in an inner side of the channel and a notch in a rear edge of an outer side thereof. The shield comprises a surrounding portion with a pair of feet supporting the shield, a pair of fingers projecting rearwardly from the surrounding portion, and a pair of plates outwardly bending from the fingers. Each finger defines a bending portion, an aperture being defined in the bending portion, and a tab at a rearward side of the bending portion interferentially mating with an interior side of the sidewall. The bending portions extend beyond the gaps and the channels and are then bent outwardly into the notches for securing the shield to the housing.
