High density, high speed connector

摘要

A high density, high speed, low profile, electrical connector ( 100 ) includes a housing ( 10 ) and conductive contacts ( 20 ) partially positioned in the housing. The housing has a base ( 11 ) defining therethrough a number of passageways ( 114 ). Each contact has a body portion ( 21 ) and a pair of cantilevered beams ( 22 ) extending from the body portion. A retaining tab ( 212 ) is stamped from the body portion and abuts against a projection ( 116 ) formed in the passageway for protect the housing from possible movement with respect to a board on which the connector is mounted. The connector also has a stabilizer ( 30 ) assembled to the housing.
