Abstract
A cable assembly comprises a housing, a plurality of terminals received in the housing and divided into several terminal groups and a cable electrically connected with the plurality of terminals. Each terminal group comprises a pair of signal terminals and a grounding terminal. Each terminal defines a body portion, a mating portion extending forwardly from a front end of the body portion, and a terminating portion extending rearwardly from a rear end of the body portion. The two mating portions of the pair of signal terminals and a mating portion of the grounding terminal of each terminal group are located on two different rows, and two terminating portions of the pair of signal terminals and a terminating portion of the grounding terminal of each terminal group are located on a same row.
