Abstract:
An electrical connector includes an insulative housing having a tongue portion with opposite upper and lower surfaces, a plurality of upper terminals and a plurality of lower terminals with contacting sections exposed upon the corresponding upper surface and lower surface, respectively. A metallic shielding plate located between upper terminals and the lower terminals. The tongue portion forms a first type hole in which the upper power terminal mechanically and electrically connects to the lower power terminal, and a second type hole in which either the upper grounding terminal mechanically and electrically connects to an upper face of the shielding plate or the lower grounding terminal mechanically and electrically connects to the lower face of the shielding plate.
Abstract:
An electrical connector includes an insulative housing with a rear base and a mating tongue extending forwardly from the base. Two rows of contacts are retained in the housing. A metallic shielding plate is embedded within the housing and between the two rows of contacts. Each row of contacts defines positions from one to twelve in the transverse direction wherein positions 2&3 and 10&11 are designated for high frequency signal transmission. In the shielding plate the space between corresponding positions 4 and 6, and that between corresponding positions 7 and 9, are of a complete or enlarged hole being essentially fully empty along the front-to-back direction for achieving the high frequency transmission without undesired crosstalk among the corresponding contacts.
