Abstract

An electrical connector includes an insulative housing defining a base portion and a tongue portion extending forwardly from the base portion, the tongue portion defines a first surface and a second surface disposed oppositely. A first terminal module is retained in the insulative housing and exposed on the first surface. And a shielding member is embedded in the tongue portion of the insulative housing and located between the first surface and the second surface. The first terminal module defines at least one grounding contact, the grounding contact defines a connecting portion projecting toward and contacting with the shielding member.
