Modular jack connector

摘要

An electrical connector comprises an insulative housing and a contact module. The contact module in the shape of the letter L includes a plurality of contacts and a contact fixing block, the contacts being insert molded into the contact fixing block. The contact fixing block includes a vertical portion and a horizontal portion extending from a lower end of the vertical portion. The contacts each include solder tail downwardly extending from a bottom face of the contact fixing block in two rows. The area of the bottom of the contact fixing block is comparatively large, thus the solder tails can be positioned in a large range for meeting different layout requirements of PCBs.
