Abstract
An electrical connector includes an insulating housing and a clamping terminal. The insulating housing has a first side wall and a second side wall opposite to the first side wall. The insulating housing has a mating cavity opening forwardly along a front-to-back direction. The first side wall and the second side wall are disposed around the mating cavity. The clamping terminal has a main body and a resilient clamping arm extending along a transverse direction perpendicular to the front-to-back direction from the main body. The clamping arm has a contacting portion exposed in the mating cavity. The first side wall has an assembling slot, and the second side wall has a movable slot. The main body is received in the assembly slot, and a head portion of the clamping arm is movable in the movable slot.
