Abstract
An electrical connector comprises an upper housing, a lower housing and a plurality of contacts which each have a top contact received in the upper housing and a bottom contact received in the lower housing. The top contact is formed with a keeping portion and a lower mating end downwardly; the bottom contact has a pair of mating beams extending vertically for engaging with the lower mating end of the top contact. The pair of mating beams of the bottom contact mechanically and electrically engage with the lower mating end of the top contact when the top contact approaches the bottom contact two mating beams in a top-to-bottom direction under a pressed force. The contact has a simple structure adapted to a high-density connector while still maintaining performance of the connector.
