Abstract
An electrical connector comprises an insulative housing, a printed circuit board retained in the insulative housing, and a limiting member. The insulative housing has a mating portion and a main portion extending backwards from the mating portion. The printed circuit board has a tongue portion exposed in front of the mating portion and a plurality of golden fingers disposed on the tongue portion for mating with a complementary connector. The limiting member defines a pair of first limiting plates parallel and opposite to each other. The first limiting plates are located in front of the mating portion entirely and on both sides of the tongue portion in a transverse direction, a first guiding slot is formed between each first limiting plate and corresponding lateral surface of the tongue portion in the transverse direction for leading the complementary connector to be plugged.
