E-easy series connector assembly with shielding function

Abstract

Disclosed is an electrical connector assembly with shielding function, includes a cable-end connector and a board-mount connector that are mateable with each other. The board-mount connector includes a metal shell, an insulation housing received in the metal shell, and conductive terminals mounted inside the insulation housing. The cable-end connector includes an upper metal shell member, a lower metal shell member, a cable clamp, an insulation housing received between the upper metal shell member and the lower metal shell member, conductive female terminals mounted inside the insulation housing, and resilient latches and a pull bar mounted to the lower metal shell member. The metal shell of the board-mount connector has top and bottom surfaces each forming shielding contact tabs, which are folded outward and each forming a protruding inside contact point and a protruding outside contact point and reliable contact is thus formed among the connectors and a device panel.
