Abstract
An audio jack connector includes an insulating housing having a rectangular base, and a plurality of contacts received in the insulating housing. A front end of the base is protruded forwards to form an insertion portion. A passageway is formed at a front of the insertion portion and extends into the base. The front end of the base has a holding slot located adjacent to the insertion portion, and a through slot which passes through an outer side of the holding slot and exposes the insulating housing. A shielding shell has a barrel surrounding the insertion portion, and a grounding element of substantially inverted-L shape connected with the barrel. The grounding element has a connecting slice extending rearwards from a rear edge of the barrel, inserting into the holding slot, and a grounding slice bent perpendicularly from an edge of the connecting slice, passing through the through slot.
