ABSTRACT:
A Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC) connector (1) includes a housing (2), a number of contacts (3,31) received in the housing, an actuator rotatably mounted on the housing, and a shielding (5) attached to the housing. The shielding substantially surrounds a top surface (201) of the housing. A number of securing slots (500) are defined in the shielding and engage with protrusions (202) of the housing for positioning the shielding on the housing. Grounding tabs (501) extend from the shielding for mating with corresponding grounding pads of a PCB. The shielding and the grounding tabs extending therefrom can provide EMI protection to the connector. The shielding can also reinforce the strength of the housing.
