Abstract

An electrical connector with a terminal module enclosed within an insulative shield wherein the terminal module includes a plurality of terminals embedded within an insulative main body. The insulative main body forms a rear mounting standing part and a front mating tongue part extending forwardly from the rear mounting standing part. The insulative shield forms a rearward step against a forward shoulder of the base portion so as to prevent further forward movement of the base portion relative to the insulative shield. The insulative main body forms a protrusion and the insulative shield forms a securing hole to receive said protrusion for securing the insulative shield and the terminal module together.
