Abstract
A cable connector (100) for soldering at a predetermined position with a cable (4) including a number of first wires (41) each having a conductor (412). The cable connector includes an insulative housing (1), a number of contact terminals (2) mounted in the insulative housing, and a pair of shielding shells (3) assembled to the insulative housing. Each contact terminal has a contact portion (21) and a tail portion (22). Each shielding shell is formed with a grounding portion (35) extending toward the tail portion of one of the contact terminals. The grounding portion, the tail portion of one of the contact terminals arrive at the predetermined position and are soldered with the conductor of an associated first wire at the predetermined position.
