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 and 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 at least a conductor extending into a corresponding canal in a second direction, 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 ate melted to solder the terminals and the conductors together;
• and
• a conductive grounding shield enclosing the connector;
• wherein the conductive grounding shield comprises an upper grounding shield assembled to the mating portion of the connector in the first direction and a lower grounding shield having a hook and assembled to the base of the connector in the second direction;
• wherein
• the upper grounding shield having a flat portion located on the base and the lower grounding shield having a pressing portion pressing against and electrically connecting with the flat portion;
• wherein
• the base comprises protrusions and the lower grounding shield has buckling portions assembled to the protrusions so that the lower grounding shield and the connector are securely assembled together;
• wherein
• the upper grounding shield comprises a vertical portion covering a rear side of the base.
• 2.The micro coaxial cable connector assembly as claimed in claim 1, wherein the base comprises a slot and the pressing portion of the lower grounding shield has a latch assembled in the slot.
• 3.The micro coaxial cable connector assembly as claimed in claim 1, wherein the base defines a recess and the upper grounding shield comprises a spring tag received in the recess.
