Connector with easily mating grounding contact

摘要

An electrical connector of the present invention comprises an insulative housing, a plurality of grounding contacts and a plurality of shells. Each contact comprises an engaging portion forming an S-shaped spring arm punched out of a plane thereof and bent backward and extending in a longitudinal direction. The spring arm of the contact resiliently interferingly fits with a distal end of a retention tab of the shell, in such manner that the grounding contacts can easily connect with shells to produce effective shielding.
