ABSTRACT:
An electrical interconnection system includes a plug connector (1) and a receptacle connector (2). The plug connector (1) has an insulated housing (11); at least one terminal (12) received in the insulated housing (11); a spacer (15) defining a body segment and adjacent to the back face of the insulated housing, an attraction member defining a hollow portion to receive the insulated housing. The terminal has a mating portion (121) forward extending beyond a front face of the insulated housing, and a pair of tail portions (124) rearward extending beyond a back face of the insulated housing. One tail portion of the terminal is located on the body segment of the spacer and the other tail portion of the terminal is embedded in the body segment of the spacer. The receptacle connector (2) has an insulative housing (24); at least one contact (22) received in the insulative housing; a magnetic block (23) assembled to the insulative housing. The plug connector and the receptacle connector are securely coupled together via a magnetic attraction between the magnetic member and the attraction member thereof. The terminal of the plug connector contact the contact of the receptacle connector.
