Abstract
The present invention is to provide a signal connector which includes an insulating body having a plurality of through grooves cut through top and bottom surfaces thereof adjacent to a front end thereof; an insulating terminal seat mounted inside the insulating body and having a plurality of metal terminals fastened thereon and separated from each other; two metal grounding members having rear ends respectively assembled with the top and bottom surfaces of the insulating body, having pressing parts respectively formed adjacent to front ends thereof and corresponding in position to the through grooves and having insulating layers respectively covered on side surfaces thereof facing the through grooves; such that the pressing part is able to apply a restoring force on the metal terminal when the signal connector is plugged with other signal connector and the metal terminal is moved away from the insulating terminal seat through the corresponding through groove.
