Abstract
A surface mount type electrical connector comprising an insulating housing having a plurality of contact receiving apertures and a plurality of contacts, each having a front contacting section, an intermediate section, and a rear section. The rear section is movably placed in a channel of the insulating housing so as to not only protect from foreign objects making short circuit or deformation but also absorb all the applied stresses uniformly. The insulating housing is mounted with a pair of mounting members to prevent warping or separation from the printed circuit board.
