Electrical connector

An electrical connector, configured to mate with a mating connector, the mating connector comprising a plurality of mating terminals, and each of the mating terminals having a first contact portion, the electrical connector comprising:

• an insulating body, having a mating space, configured to mate with the mating connector;
• a shielding sheet, accommodated in the insulating body;
• a plurality of contact terminals, each being accommodated in the insulating body and located at one side of the shielding sheet, wherein each of the contact terminals has a second contact portion exposed to the mating space;
• and
• an elastic body, accommodated in the insulating body and partially exposed to the mating space, wherein the elastic body is located between the shielding sheet and the contact terminals;
• wherein when the electric connector is mated with the mating connector, the first contact portion of each of the mating terminals enters into the mating space and applies an acting force to the elastic body, and the elastic body applies a counter acting force to the first contact portion of each of the mating terminals, such that the first contact portion of each of the mating terminals abuts the second contact portion of a corresponding one of the contact terminals.
