Two port USB cable assembly

摘要

A USB (Universal Serial Bus) cable includes a cable having an end to which a connection device is attached. The connection device includes an insulative casing in which two USB connectors are fixed and electrically connected to the cable. Two bores are defined in a front wall of the casing for rotatably retaining two bolts. A conductive plate associated with each bolt is fixed in the casing having a first section defining a hole through which the bolt extends and a second section resiliently engaging with a conductive shield of the corresponding USB connector. The first section has step-like edges fixedly received in L-shaped slits defined in the front wall with the first section overlapping an outside surface of the front wall whereby when the connection device is secured to an external grounding panel by the bolts, the conductive plate engages with the grounding panel forming an electrical connection between the shield of the corresponding USB connector and the grounding panel.
