Cable connector assembly having a physical resistor arranged in a larger one of two cable end connectors thereof

A cable connector assembly comprising:

• a first cable end connector including an insulative support, a plurality of contacts insert molded with the insulative support, and a front insulative body mounted to the insulative support, the plurality of contacts including a pair of USB 2.0 signal contacts, plural power contacts, plural ground contacts, and a detection contact;
• a second cable end connector including an insulative base and a plurality of contacts insert molded with the insulative base, the plurality of contacts including a pair of signal contacts, a power contact, and a ground contact;
• a cable connected between the first and second cable end connectors, the cable including a detection wire connected to the detection contact of the first cable end connector;
• and
• a physical resistor connected between the detection wire of the cable and the power contact of the second cable end connector;
• wherein
• the first cable end connector is a USB Type C plug connector while the second cable end connector is a USB Type A plug connector.
