Abstract

A cable assembly (100) includes a connector (3) receiving a plurality of terminals, a printed circuit board (PCB) (4), a Light Emitting Diode (LED) member (5) and a cable (7). The PCB comprises a pair of opposite mounting surfaces. One of the mounting surfaces is attached to a rear end of the connector, and electrically connecting with the terminals. The LED member comprises a plurality of tail portions (51) soldering to the other mounting surface, each tail portion comprises a straight portion (511), a connecting portion extending forwardly from the distal end of the straight portion, and a soldering portion (512) extending vertically from the distal end of the connecting portion. The cable electrically connects with the PCB.
