Patent attributes
An electrical connector includes an insulating body having a base and a tongue located at the front end of the base, a shielding shell sleeved outside the base and the tongue and forming a mating space, and multiple upper-row terminals and multiple lower-row terminals fixed on the base. Each upper-row and lower row terminal has a contacting portion exposed from the upper or lower surface of the tongue, a soldering portion extending out of the base, and a connecting portion located between the contacting portion and the soldering portion. The upper-row terminals and the lower-row terminals include respectively at least one upper-row ground terminal and at least one lower-row ground terminal. An extending portion extends from each of the connecting portions of the upper-row ground terminal and the lower-row ground terminal, and the cutting surface of each extending portion urges against the shielding shell.
