Abstract

An exemplary cable connector includes a terminal module, a latching flange, and a housing. The terminal module includes a first terminal, a second terminal, and an insulator. The first terminal and the second terminal are insulated by the insulator. The latching flange is fixed on an outer surface of the terminal module. The housing is fixed on a periphery of the terminal module. The latching flange forms at least one resisting surface. An inner surface of the housing defines a latching groove corresponding to the latching flange. The latching groove forms at least one resisting surface corresponding to the at least one resisting surface of the latching flange. The latching flange is latched in the latching groove.
