Abstract
An electrical connector () includes an insulative housing () extending in a front-to-back direction, a conductive shell () enclosing the insulative housing and cooperating with the insulative housing to define a receiving cavity () adapted for receiving a complementary connector, a first set of contacts () held in the insulative housing for transmitting a first kind of signals, a second set of contacts () held in the insulative housing and comprising two pairs of differential contacts () respectively for transmitting and receiving a second kind of signals and a grounding contact (), a first set of wires () and a second set of wires (). Each first contact includes a contacting section () exposed in the receiving cavity and a tail section () extending rearward from the contacting section. Each of the second set of contacts includes a contacting section () exposed in the receiving cavity and a tail section () extending rearward form the contacting section. The first set of wires are aligned in one row and have inner conductors () electrically connecting with the tail sections of the first set of contacts. The second set of wires are aligned in one row and include a pair of differential pairs () electrically connecting with the two pairs of differential contacts for transmitting and receiving the second kind of signals and at least one grounding conductor () electrically connecting with the grounding contact.
