Abstract
An electrical connector has an insulative housing, a plurality of terminals and a metal shell. The insulative housing has a base and an extension. The terminals are mounted in the base. The metal shell covers the insulative housing to define a card space between the insulative housing and the metal shell and has a top plate and two lateral plates. The top plate has a plurality of pressing tabs formed on and protruding from the top plate towards the top of the insulative housing to tightly abut against a card that is inserted into the card space. The pressing tabs prevent the card from moving or falling out of the card space.
