Abstract
A cable connector assembly includes an insulator (1), a plurality of conductive terminals (2) held in the insulator, a plurality of wires (4), a spacer (3) and a metal shell (6, 7). Each wire comprises an inner conductor (41) conductively connecting with the terminals, and at least one of the wires is a coaxial cable (4a) which has a shielding braid layer (43) enclosing the corresponding inner conductor. The spacer is mounted on the insulator and used for supporting the wires. The spacer comprises an inner surface with thereof a plurality of slots (31) for receiving the responding wires and an outer surface opposite to the inner surface, and a through-hole (32) is formed through the inner and outer surfaces. The metal shell is mounted on and covers the insulator. The spring finger (75) is formed integrate with the metal shell and extends inwards, and the spring finger passes through the through-hole to electrically connect with the shielding braid of the coaxial cable.
