Abstract
A shielding unit of a network connector is disposed in an elongated casing of the connector adjacent to one connecting end thereof. The shielding unit includes a main shielding member that has a plate member fixed to on a bottom of the elongated casing with three upright posts that extend vertically from the plate member so as to form two gaps, and two auxiliary shielding plates connected detachably to the main shielding member. The two shielding plates cooperate with one another to form a wall body to close the two gaps. One of the auxiliary shielding plates has an inlet hole which serves as the sole access that leads to an interior of the elongated casing.
Claims2
