ABSTRACT:
A pair of conductive ground clips each having a plurality of flexible fingers, are slid into an interference engagement with the ends of a flange of a D-shell connector. The ground clip equipped connector is held in a plastic connector housing which is latched to a conductive plate by flexible latching arms that are a part of the connector housing. As the connector housing is latched to the plate with the latching arms, flexible fingers on the clips touch the plate and flex making and maintaining a good electrical connection therewith. The ground clips maintain a proper electrical ground connection between the housing contained connector and the plate avoiding undesirable electrostatic discharge, electromagnetic interference, and radio-frequency interference.
