Abstract

An electrical connector, mounted upon a printed circuit board, includes an insulative housing, a number of terminals disposed in the insulative housing, a shielding shell attached to the housing, and a glue wall formed by glue. The housing defines a third base portion and a groove located at an upper surface in a rear end and for receiving glue. The terminals has a number of first contacts and a number of second contacts. Each first contact has a first soldering portion and each second contact has a second soldering portion. The shielding shell defines a guiding hole for flowing the glue. The glue wall flows from the guiding hole through the groove to seal up a gap between the insulative housing and the shielding shell.
