Shielded integrated connector module

An electrical connector assembly for mating with electrical plugs, said electrical connector assembly comprising:

• a housing comprising a top wall and a bottom wall that is opposite the top wall, the housing comprising a mating face having ports that are configured to receive the electrical plugs therein;
• a jack sub-assembly held by the housing, the jack sub-assembly comprising jacks having electrical contacts held within the ports for engagement with the electrical plugs, the jack sub-assembly comprising a signal pin array comprising signal pins for connection to a host circuit board, the signal pin array having a front side extending along the bottom wall of the housing;
• and
• an electrically conductive bottom shield at least partially covering the bottom wall of the housing, wherein the bottom shield comprises a row of ground tabs that flanks the front side of the signal pin array.
