An electrical connector including an insulative housing, a plurality of contacts retained in the housing. The housing forms a mating surface for mating with an electronic part, and a supporting/mounting surface on which an FPC is seated. The contact includes a contacting section exposed upon the mating surface, a soldering section extending through the FPC, and a connecting section between the contacting section and the soldering section. A metallic shell is attached upon the housing, facing the FPC direction in the vertical direction to restrict movement of the FPC in a vertical direction. The contacts may be bent after assembly to expose the soldering sections at the mounting face.
