Electrical connector assembly

摘要

An electrical connector assembly (1) has first and second electrical connectors (10) mated with each other. Both connectors have an identical configuration. Each connector comprises an insulating housing (11) and a plurality of identical terminals (12) received in the insulating housing. The insulating housing comprises a base portion (111), a first and second side walls (112, 113) extending upwardly from opposite lateral sides of the base portion. The second side wall defines a slot (1130) dimensioned corresponding to the first side wall. The first side wall of one of the two electrical connectors is inserted into the slot of the other electrical connector. Each terminal has a mating portion (123) comprising a first curved portion (1231) and a second curved portion (1232). The first and second curved portions of one electrical connector engage with the second and the first curved portions of the other electrical connector.
