Abstract
An electromagnetic interference diminishing structure of a connector assembly. The connector assembly includes a socket and a plug. The socket includes a main body enclosed by a metal housing connected to the grounding circuit of a circuit board. The plug includes a shield metal housing formed with grounding sections. A terminal main body is inserted in the shield metal housing. An insulating housing is fitted around the shield metal housing. When a front section of the plug is plugged into the socket, the metal housing of the socket and the grounding sections of the shield metal housing of the plug contact with each other through the holes of the insulating housing of the plug. Accordingly, the electromagnetic interference can be effectively diminished.
