Each contact includes a U-shaped contacting portion received in said receiving room, a vertical holding portion retained in an inner surface of said peripheral wall and a connecting portion connecting with said contacting portion and said holding portion. Said connecting portion has a linear leading surface which is formed slanted towards said contacting portion downwardly in order to provide a smooth mating process with a mating connector.
