ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector for receiving a daughter card having a plurality of conductive surfaces, the electrical connector has a socket with an elongated slot for receiving the daughter card. The slot has electrical terminals for engaging the plurality of conductive surfaces on the daughter card and for electrically connecting the daughter card to the connector. A shaped tower at, at least one end of the elongated slot having a pair of legs rotatably retains a latch for securing the daughter card to the connector. The latch is rotatable between a first position at which the daughter card is retained within the elongated slot and a second position at which the daughter card is unrestrained. The connector further has an end wall at, at least one distal end of the elongated slot. The end wall has a protrusion protruding towards the centre of the elongated slot, the protrusion prevents the latch being removed from the tower when the latch is in the first position.
