A stacked electrical connector has an insulative housing ( 1 ), a plurality of signal contacts ( 23, 26 ) and a pair of contacts ( 24, 27, 25, 28 ) retained in the housing. The housing defines a mounting surface ( 19 ) for mounting on a printed circuit board and a receiving space ( 12 ) for receiving a mating plug ( 9 ). The switch contact includes a base portion retained in the housing and a spring arm extending from the base portion. An insulative separator ( 245 ) is formed on one spring arm and projects into the receiving space. The separator is moveable in a plane vertical to the mounting surface. When the mating plug inserts into the receiving space, the separator rotates and drives one switch contact to connect with the other switch contact.
