Abstract
An electrical connector for connecting a cable includes an insulating housing with power contacts and signal contacts received therein, a power bus bar connecting with one power contact, and a spacer receiving the power bus bar. The insulating housing includes a mating face, a mounting face opposite to the mating face and defines first and second passageways extending therethrough. Each power contact forms a first engaging portion and a first contacting portion. Each signal contact forms a second engaging portion and a second contacting portion. The power bus bar has a main section extending along a first plane, a middle section extending from the main section, and a connecting section extending along a second plane perpendicular to the first plane.
