Abstract

An electrical receptacle connector includes a mount member received in a metallic shell. A tongue portion is integrally formed to a front portion of the mount member. A plurality of first receptacle terminals, a plurality of second receptacle terminals, and a grounding plate are held in the mount member and the tongue portion. The front ends of the first and second receptacle terminals are respectively inserted into two opposite surfaces of the tongue portion. Therefore, the first receptacle terminals, the second receptacle terminals, and the grounding plate are positioned with each other securely. Accordingly, when the connector is impacted by an external force, the components of the connector would not be detached from each other easily.
