ABSTRACT:
A connector assembly for printed circuit boards comprises a first and a second connector part. The first connector part has a first housing of insulating material and having a bottom and two opposite side walls and with male contact elements mounted in the bottom of the housing and arranged in rows and columns and having portions projecting from the bottom of the housing adapted to be inserted into holes of the corresponding printed circuit board. The second connector part has a second housing of insulating material adapted to be inserted into the first housing with an insertion side and with female contact elements mounted in the housing and arranged in a corresponding manner in rows and columns and having portions projecting from a lower side of the housing, which projecting portions can be inserted into holes of the corresponding printed circuit board. The second connector part comprises at least one ground contact plate projecting out of said housing at the insertion side along a distance substantially corresponding with the thickness of the bottom of the first housing. At least one slot is provided in the bottom of the first housing for receiving the ground contact plates. The first housing comprises shielding plates provided on the side walls and having contact means for connection with a corresponding conductor of the corresponding printed circuit board and wherein ground contact means each project in a slot in the bottom of the housing for contacting a ground contact plate of the second housing.
