ABSTRACT:
A card bus connector includes an insulative housing having a connecting portion and a pair of receiving arms extending from distal ends of the connecting portion, a plurality of contact terminals received in passageways defined through the connecting portion, a metal strip received in a guiding groove of each receiving arm for contacting with metal covers of an inserted I/O card, and a grounding plate firmly positioned between the connecting portion and the retaining arms. Metal standoffs extending downward from four corners of the housing contact grounding traces formed on a PCB thereby providing a first grounding path from an I/O card inserted in the card bus connector. The grounding plate also contacts grounding traces formed on the PCB thereby providing a second grounding path from an I/O card inserted in the card bus connector.
