Abstract
A cable connector (1) includes an insulative housing (10), a number of terminals (20) and a cable (60). The insulative housing includes a base portion (12) and a tongue (14) extending from the base portion. The terminals are received in the insulative housing. Each terminal comprises a contacting portion (21) and an opposite tail portion (22). The contacting portion is located on the tongue, and the tail portion extends beyond the insulative housing. The tail portions of adjacent terminals are different from each other. Each tail portion defines a soldering portion (24) thereon. The cable has conductors (61) soldered to corresponding soldering portions of the tail portions, and the soldering portions are at different height.
