Abstract
An electrical connector includes a mount plate and a metallic housing. The metallic housing includes a metallic frame and at least one hook-shaped rib which extend from the metallic frame and are used to hold the mount plate. The mount plate is made of low-cost material to replace expensive side tab extending from the metallic housing. Thus, size of mould for the metallic housing is decreased, scraps is fewer and cost is lowered.
