Abstract
An electrical connector has an insulating housing provided with first and second contacts. A positioning guide protrudes from a mating surface of the housing. At least one barrier wall is formed between the first and second contacts that separates the first contacts from the second contacts. A mating connector has an insulating mating housing provided with first and second mating contacts and a positioning recessed member that receives the positioning guide. A barrier wall recessed member is formed between the first and second mating contacts that separates the first mating contacts from the second mating contacts. The barrier wall recessed member receives the barrier wall when the electrical connector is mated with the mating connector. A shutter member is provided on the mating connector and is moveable between an upper position and a lower position. The shutter member covers the first and second mating contacts in the upper position.
