Abstract

Provided is an electrical connector, including an inner housing, two first components, multiple terminals respectively disposed in the first components, two second components, two metallic sheets, and an outer housing accommodating the inner housing, the terminals, the first components, the second components, and the metallic sheets. The inner housing has a insertion space, an inner wall surface facing towards the insertion space, an outer wall surface facing away from the insertion space, and multiple first openings connecting the inner wall surface and the outer wall surface. The terminals are assembled to the outer wall surface along with the first components. Connecting ends of the terminals extend from the outer wall surface through the first openings to the insertion space. The second components assembled to the inner housing shield the connecting ends and the first openings. The metallic sheets are assembled to the inner housing and stacked on the second components.
