Abstract
An electrical connector assembly includes a receptacle connector and a plug connector. The receptacle connector includes a housing unit defining a mating cavity communicating with an exterior via an insertion opening at a front end thereof. A plurality of contact grooves are defined within the housing unit and extend along a front-to-rear direction. A plurality of contacts are arranged in the contact grooves in a side-by-side manner. A pair of elastic locking devices are disposed at opposite sides of the mating cavity and each has a pair of locking arms projecting into the mating cavity. The locking arms are formed within a common plane which is perpendicular to the front-to-rear direction. The plug connector is inserted into the mating cavity and clipped by the locking arms so as to realize a better retaining effect.
