Electrical connector having an improved housing having a curved structure

摘要

An electrical connector (1) for electrically connecting with a modular plug (2) includes an insulative housing (10) having a receiving cavity (100) and a resisting block (126) formed in the receiving cavity and having a curved surface (122). A number of contacts (20) is mounted in the receiving cavity. Each contact has a mating portion (21) extending into the receiving cavity and cantilevered above the resisting block. The modular plug is engaged with the mating portion and presses the mating portion to the resisting block when the modular plug is inserted into the receiving cavity. When the plug connector is inserted into the receiving cavity, the mating potion abuts against the curved surface.
