At least one groove sidewall of the card groove defines an open slot spaced from the card groove for accordingly forming at least one elastic arm between the open slot and the card groove, wherein the elastic arm further projects into the card groove for resisting against the micro SIM card. A metal part is molded in the insulating housing and exposed in the card groove for supporting the micro SIM card thereon.
