Abstract
An electrical connector has an insulative housing, a plurality of first terminals, a plurality of second terminals and a terminal shield. The first and second terminals are mounted in the insulative housing and each terminal has a soldering segment. The terminal shield substantially shields the soldering segments of the second terminals and prevents electromagnetic interference so that transmitting high frequency signals on the second terminals is stable.
