<p>A receptacle (10) for an electrical connector comprising a housing (14) having a first face (12) adjacent a bottom side and a second face (16) and a plurality of signal conducting means each extending from said first face to said second face. The housing has a pair of longitudinal sides interposed between said first face and said second face. The receptacle has a contact element (32) on its bottom side, and the contact comprises an upper member and a lower spring member. The contact element is integral with a conductive shield mounted in the housing. The lower spring member is bent at an angle to the upper member which is coplanar with the shield. The spring member is a doubly supported beam and is cantilevered. The contact is, therefore, formed without the use of a die.</p> |
