ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector is provided for mounting to a substrate such as a printed circuit board or the like. The connector includes an insulative housing having a top, opposite sides and a base portion which is mountable to the printed circuit board. A conductive shield is positionable about at least a portion of the housing. A unitary conductive ground strap is mounted on the housing in engagement with the shield and includes a pair of legs depending along the opposite sides of the housing. The legs have tail portions at the distal ends thereof projecting beyond the base portion of the housing for insertion into holes in the printed circuit board to ground the shield to appropriate ground traces on the board.
