A system is provided for straddle mounting an electrical connector having an elongated housing with opposite ends to a printed circuit board. A generally U-shaped mounting clip is provided having a pair of legs joined by a bight portion, the mounting clip having teeth thereon for relatively fixing the mounting clip to the housing. The legs are juxtaposed against the opposite surfaces of the printed circuit board for connection to appropriate mounting pads thereon, and the bight portion embraces a portion of the housing. The printed circuit board has an edge and opposite surfaces, with circuit traces on the opposite surfaces of the board near the edge. The electrical connector is adapted for straddle mounting to the printed circuit board at the edge thereof, with terminals on the housing and including tail portions for connection to the circuit traces on the opposite surfaces of the printed circuit board.
