Abstract
An electrical connector includes an electrically insulative housing including a front base, a back cover and a floating structure exposed to the outside of an accommodation chamber between the front base and the back cover, and a contact conducting structure including a flexible PC board, multiple conducting terminals electrically connected to respective contacts at the flexible PC board, a support block having fingers respectively extended from respective spring arms thereof for supporting the flexible PC board and spring members supporting the respective fingers. The flexible PC board has slits respectively disposed between each two adjacent contacts so that the conducting terminals can be independently biased with the respective contact without affecting the conducting stability, making the electrical connector practical for high frequency application.
