Vertically mated micro coaxial cable connector assembly

A micro coaxial cable connector assembly comprising:

• a connector comprising a mating portion defining a recess adapted for receiving a complementary connector, said recess opening in a first direction, a base perpendicular to the mating portion, the base defining a plurality of canals;
• a plurality of terminals received in the mating portion and further extending into the canals;
• a plurality of wires assembled to the base and each wire comprising a conductor extending into a corresponding canal in a second direction and a grounding braiding surrounding the conductor, the first direction being perpendicular to the second direction;
• a plurality of solder slugs received in the canals, when the solder slugs are heated, they are melted to solder the terminals and the conductors together;
• and
• a conductive shield having a first portion enclosing the mating portion and a second portion attached to the base of the connector, the first and second portions being electrically connected with each other and electrically connecting with the grounding braiding of the wires;
• wherein
• the first portion having a flat portion extending outwardly from an edge of the first portion and perpendicular thereto, the flat portion locating on the base and the second portion having a pressing portion electrically connecting with the flat portion;
• wherein
• the base comprises a protrusion and the second portion has a buckling portion assembled to the protrusion so that the second portion and the connector are securely assembled together.
