ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR AND ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY THEREOF

摘要

An electrical connector assembly includes an insulative housing, at least a first terminal, at least a second terminal, a first metallic shell and a second metallic shell. The insulative housing has a base portion, a first tongue portion and a second tongue portion. The first and second tongue portions being disposed separately at a certain distance and parallel to each other. The first terminal has a first contacting portion and a first connecting leg. The second terminal has a second contacting portion and a second connecting leg. The first metallic shell surrounds the first tongue portion to form a first mating cavity. The second metallic shell surrounds at least a part of the second tongue portion to form a second mating cavity. The first and the second mating cavity are independent and closely stacked along a vertical direction.
