Abstract
An electrical connector includes an insulating body, upper row terminals and lower row terminals disposed in the insulating body, and a shielding casing placed on an outer side of the insulating body. The insulating body includes a base portion, and an elevated portion disposed below the base portion. Each of the terminals has a connecting portion located in the elevated portion. A shielding plate integrally extends from a bottom wall of the shielding casing to be located in front of the elevated portion. A back cover integrally bends from a top wall of the shielding casing to be located behind the elevated portion. When the electrical connector is soldered to a circuit board, the shielding plate and the back cover isolate the connecting portion from an external environment, so that the electrical connector is not affected by external electromagnetic interference (EMI) during transmission of high-frequency signals.
