A modular jack connector (10) for mounting on a printed circuit board comprises a housing (12) and a pair of boardlocks (20). The housing has a board-mounting face (17) and two opposite side faces (18)connected with the board-mounting face. A groove (36) is defined in each side face, and extends from the board-mounting face. Each boardlock has a retaining portion (22) which is interferentially retained in a corresponding groove. A base portion (24) vertically connects with the retaining portion and has a post (27) downwardly protruding for engaging with the circuit board. Two wings extend upwardly from each base portion for abutting the board-mounting face of the housing. A pair of projections (25) extends downwardly from opposite sides of the retaining portion, and a gap (28) is defined between the base portion and each projection.
