Abstract
An electrical connector includes an insulative housing forming plural rows of passageways wherein each row of passageways extends along a transverse direction while the plural rows are spaced from one another in a front-to-back direction perpendicular to the transverse direction. Each passageway is dimension to receive a unified contact having three sets of spring arms spaced from one another in the transverse direction. The three sets of spring arms are categorized with two outer sets and one inner set therebetween in the transverse direction. The pitch between the two neighboring sets of spring arms of each unified contact is essentially one half of the distance between one outer set of spring arms of one unified contact and another outer set of spring arms of the neighboring unified contact.
