Electrical connector with anti-mismating device for preventing incorrect insertion of a smaller sized mating connector

摘要

An electrical connector comprises an insulating housing (1) defining a receiving cavity opening (101) through a front face thereof for receiving a mating connector, a plurality of conductive terminals (2) comprising an elastic contacting portion (22) slantwise extending into the receiving cavity and a discrete limiting member (4) being inserted into the cavity through a inserting opening (15) and positioned under the contacting portion so as to prevent the contacting portions from over moving when an un-mating connector is inserted into the receiving cavity.
