There is at least one jack and a terminal connector mounted on the printed board are conductively connected to each other by way of the printed board. The connector box is characterized in that the lower base part and upper base part form a housing and are die cast metal parts, and wherein the upper base part is seated by its peripheral edge on the lower base part in an electrically conductive manner. The housing encloses and shields at least the jack and a portion of the printed board. A structure is provided for holding the shielding of a cable on one of the base parts in electrically conductive contact therewith.
