A receptacle connector includes an insulating portion, a receptacle terminal module mounted to the insulating portion, a metal shell enclosing the insulating portion, and a receptacle circuit board. The insulating portion includes a receiving space and a mating space extending from the receiving space. The mating space extends through the insulating portion to form a mating port. The receptacle terminal module includes a first terminal module and a second terminal module. The first terminal module and the second terminal module have a same structure, and are symmetrically arranged on opposite sides of the mating space. The first terminal module and the second terminal module are electrically connected to the receptacle circuit board.
