Abstract
A wire to board connector has improved contact reliability and includes a receptacle connector for mounting to a circuit board and a plug connector with a mating blade for insertion into an opening of the receptacle connector. Both connectors have shields that are formed around their exterior and the receptacle connector has an interior shield member that envelops the insertion opening of the receptacle connector. Individual connect legs are formed with this interior shield member and they are spaced apart from each other widthwise of the insertion opening. A contact spring is disposed within the interior of the receptacle connector to exert a contact force on the mating plug connector.
