<p>Multiple terminals are mounted in the housing for making electrical contact with corresponding terminals on the plug connector when inserted into the plug-receiving cavity. A one-piece rectangular shield is stamped and formed of conductive material and has front, top, rear and side wall portions surrounding and shielding the front face and the top, rear and side walls of the dielectric housing. At least two recesses are provided in the bottom board mounting wall of the housing at the juncture with the front face of the housing, one of the recesses provided at opposite sides of the opening. Supporting tabs are provided at a bottom edge of the front wall portion of the shield and extend rearwardly into the recesses. The depth of the recess is at least equal to the thickness of the supporting tab so that the tab does not project downwardly beyond the bottom board mounting wall of the housing.</p> |
