A Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC) connector ( 1 ) includes a housing ( 2 ), a number of contacts ( 3,31 ) received in the housing, an actuator rotatably mounted on the housing, and a shielding ( 5 ) attached to the housing. The shielding substantially surrounds a top surface ( 201 ) of the housing. A number of securing slots ( 500 ) are defined in the shielding and engage with protrusions ( 202 ) of the housing for positioning the shielding on the housing. Grounding tabs ( 501 ) extend from the shielding for mating with corresponding grounding pads of a PCB. The shielding and the grounding tabs extending therefrom can provide EMI protection to the connector. The shielding can also reinforce the strength of the housing.
