Abstract
A stacked electronic connector includes a hollow mounting block, a first type connector socket and a second type connector socket. The mounting block has a front, a rear, two opposite sides, two inner guides, defined inside the mounting block and two windows through two corners where the front and the sides of the mounting block meet. The second type connector socket has two indicator lights and two arms. Each arm has a front end and an inclined edge formed at the front end that are held in the corresponding windows. Consequently, light produced by the indicator lights will be transmitted through the arms to the front ends and the inclined edges of the arms. A person can see the light from various directions.
