The housing defines a front face, a rear portion and a bottom portion which is mountable to the printed circuit board. A conductive shield is positionable against the front face of the housing and includes a ground strap extending rearwardly beneath the base portion of the housing. A conductive board lock member is positionable against the rear portion of the housing and includes a commoning portion extending forwardly beneath the base portion of the housing in engagement with the ground strap of the conductive shield. The board lock member has legs positionable through a locking hole in the printed circuit board and for commoning the shield to a ground trace on the printed circuit board adjacent the hole.
