<p>The present invention provides a modular electrical connector (12) having a shield assembly surrounding the connector, comprising a base (38) and a pair of opposing side walls (40), each one of said side walls being situated along a lateral edge of the base (38) between the front wall (30) and the opened rear end of the shield assembly, a top wall (34), a rear wall section (44, 46), foldable into a closed position wherein the top wall (34) is hingedly connected to the front wall (30) and movable from an open position to a closed position and includes an integral grounding clip (50) extending from a rearward distal end of the top wall (34), and the rear wall section (44, 46) extends from a rear end of at least one opposing side wall. To stack and to mount such connectors to a faceplate by means of latching arms the top wall (34) has an opening (62) for allowing a latching arm access to the connector (12) and a sloped portion (70) downwardly angled extending from the shield opening (62) towards a rear end of the connector. <IMAGE></p> |
