The shielding device includes a first and a second shielding portions (4, 5) assembled to the housing. The first shielding portion includes a body (41), a frame (42) extending forwardly from the body, and a number of elastic plates (44) extending rearwardly from an upper end of the body. Each elastic plate has an abutting portion (441). The second shielding portion has a top wall (51), a rear wall (52), and two side walls (53). The top wall defines a number of concaves (55) mating with the abutting portions of the elastic plates.
