Abstract
An electrical connector (100) includes an insulative housing (1), a number of contact terminals (2), a metal plate (3), and a metallic shell (4) enclosing the insulative housing (1). The terminals and the metal plate (3) are retained in the insulative housing (1). The insulative housing (1) includes a base portion (11) and a tongue portion (12) extending forward from the base portion (11). The contact terminal includes a contacting portion (21), a tail (22), and a connecting portion (23) connecting the contacting portion (21) and the tail (22). The tails (22) are positioned out of the insulative housing (1). The metal plate (3) has a number of positioning end portions (33). The positioning end portions (33) are soldered on a printed circuit board for grounding. The electrical connector (100) has improved electromagnetic interference effect.
