ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR WITH IMPRIVED GROUNDING BAR

摘要

An electrical connector includes an insultive housing and defining a base seat and a mating portion extending from the base seat. A plurality of conductive terminals are retained in the mating portion and include a plurality of differential signal terminal pairs and grounding terminals, each conductive terminal defines a contacting portion disposed on the mating portion, a retaining portion fixed to the base seat and a connecting portion extending outside of the base seat, the contacting portion of each grounding terminal has a free end extending toward the inside of the mating portion and abutting against a first grounding bar. A second grounding bar defines a base portion and a plurality of abutting portions extending from the base portion and abutting against the retaining portions of the grounding terminals. The first grounding bar and the second grounding bar are connected by a bridging portion thereof.

1. An electrical connector, comprising:
an insultive housing extending along a longitudinal direction and defining a base seat and a mating portion extending from the base seat along a mating direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, the mating portion defining a mating surface and a plurality of terminal slots recessed on the mating surface; a plurality of conductive terminals retained in the terminal slots and comprising a plurality of differential signal terminal pairs and a plurality of grounding terminals located between the plurality of differential signal terminal pairs, each conductive terminal defining a contacting portion disposed on the mating surface, a retaining portion fixed to the base seat and a connecting portion extending outside of the base seat, the contacting portion of each grounding terminal having a free end extending toward the inside of the mating portion; a first grounding bar facing to the contacting portions of the conductive terminals, and the free ends of the grounding terminals abutting against the first grounding bar; and a second grounding bar facing to the retaining portions of the conductive terminals and defining a base portion and a plurality of abutting portions extending from the base portion and abutting against the retaining portions of the grounding terminals; wherein the first grounding bar and the second grounding bar are connected by a bridging portion thereof.
