Abstract
An electrical connector for flat cables has an insulative housing, contacts and a shield member. The insulative housing is mountable onto a circuit board having a conductive pad. The contacts are disposed in the insulative housing for contacting a shield of a flat cable to be inserted into the connector. The shield member is mounted on the insulative housing so as to substantially cover the outer surfaces thereof and electrically connect the shield of the flat cable to the conductive pad of the circuit board when the shield member is mounted on the insulative housing.
