Abstract
A combination includes an electronic device and an electrical connector. The electronic device includes a device housing with a mating area, and a device terminal set formed in the mating area. The electrical connector includes a connector casing with a mating region, a connector terminal set to mate with the device terminal set, and an auxiliary unit with an abutment part covering a part of the mating region of the connector casing. When the mating region of the electrical connector mates with the mating area of the electronic device, the abutment part of the auxiliary unit abuts against the device housing such that the electrical connector is stabilized and prevented from moving relative to the electronic device.
