A cable assembly comprises a housing including an upper cover and a lower cover assembled with each other and a pair of first and second printed circuit boards (PCBs) received in the housing and sandwiched between the upper and lower cover. The upper cover defines a number of protruding portions formed therein. Each of the protruding portion defines two steps thereon. The first and second PCBs are spaced apart from each other along a vertical direction by the two steps of each of the protruding portions. The first and second PCBs respectively define a plurality of first and second openings cooperating with corresponding protruding portions.
