Abstract

A shielded electrical connector (100) for receiving a module includes a shielding shell (3) mounted to a printed circuit board, an insulative housing (1) assembled to the shell and equipped with a number of contacts (2). Each contact has a contacting portion (22) for contacting with the module and a soldering portion (23) extending beyond the shell for connection to the printed circuit board. The shell comprises a bottom plate (32) extending in a direction perpendicular to the module insertion direction and a plurality of side plates (310, 311, 312, 313) extending upwardly from the bottom plate and cooperating with the bottom plate to form a receiving space for receiving the module. Every two adjacent side plates are connected to each other.
