An audio jack comprises an insulative housing (1) defining a plug insertion hole (104) for receiving a contact of a plug connector, and a plurality of fixing terminals (2) and resilient terminals (3) received in corresponding receiving grooves (120, 140) in both sides of the housing. Each resilient terminal comprises a main body (30), a connecting portion (34) perpendicularly extending from the main body, a resilient arm (35) slantwise extending from the connecting portion round and away from the main body, and a contact portion (36) at a free end of the resilient arm extending toward the main body for connecting with the fixing terminal. Before the plug connector is inserted into the plug insertion hole of the audio jack, the contact portion of the resilient terminal abuts against the fixing terminal. When the plug connector is inserted into the plug insertion hole of the audio jack, the contact of the plug connector pushes the contact portion of the resilient terminal away from the fixing terminal thereby establishing signal transmission between the plug connector and the audio jack. The resilient arm of the resilient terminal has enough length to provide the resiliency needed to restore the contact portion to its original position.
