Abstract

An electrical connector includes an insulative housing, a number of terminals retained in the insulative housing, a shielding shell attached to the insulative housing, and an insulator insert-molded with a rear end of the shielding shell. The terminals have a number of soldering portions extending out of a rear surface of the insulative housing. The shielding shell has a tail portion located at a rear end thereof. The insulator at least wraps partly an external surface of the tail portion to seal up a rear end of the insulative housing and extend the soldering portions of the terminals through the insulator to expose a rear surface thereof.
