ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a card edge connector which has a pivoting latching mechanism that has a pair of parallel fingers that direct inward transverse forces on the opposed sides of the printed wiring board to secure it in the connector. The connector also includes a plate on each of the contact elements which prevents overstressing of the arcuate element of the contact. The plate also includes a longitudinal projection and an opposed longitudinal recess so that the contact elements resist axial forces.
