Electrical connector with a metallic shell with a mating opening divided into two different interfaces

摘要

Provided is an electrical connector including an insulative housing having a main body and a pair of tongue plates perpendicular extending from said main body along a mating direction. Said tongue plates are parallel to each other and each defines a plurality of terminal grooves thereon. A plurality of terminals are received in the terminal grooves. A metallic shell is retained on the main body of the insulative housing and encloses said pair of tongue plates thereby defining a mating opening therein. The mating opening defines a first and a second different interfaces in communication with each other. At least a partition portion protrudes toward the mating opening from said main body and defines a bottom surface to act as a top wall of the second interface.
