ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector (100) includes an insulative housing (2), a plurality of contacts (3) retained therein, and a metal shield (1) enclosing the insulative housing (2). The contacts (3) comprise a group of first contacts (31) and a group of second contacts (32). Each contact (3) has a body portion (34), a contact portion (33) and a soldering portion (35). The soldering portions (35) are adapted to be surface-mounted to a circuit board. The body portion (35) has a first bending portion (341) joined with the contact portion (33), and a second bending portion (342) joined with the soldering portion (35). The body portions (34) of the first contacts (31) and the second contacts (32) are arranged in two rows along a front to back direction. The body portion (34) of the first contact (31) comprises a third bending portion (343) between the first bending portion (341) and the second bending portion (342) for making the soldering portion in a common plane.
