Abstract

An electrical connector includes a fastening part, a connector body assembled under the fastening part and defining at least one receiving groove at a mating end thereof, a base board positioned under the connector body, and a shielding shell. The connector body and the base board can be firmly fastened in the shielding shell by means of the fastening part. At least one end edge of the shielding shell is bent inward to form a positioning tail positioned in the receiving groove to position the mating end of the connector body with a front face of the mating end being flush with the end edge of the shielding shell and a contact face of the connector body being substantially flush with a top edge of the positioning tail, so as to avoid the mating end of the connector body wrapping in use.
