ABSTRACT:
A card edge connector (10) includes an insulative elongated housing (12) defining a central slot (14) for receiving a card (100). A plurality of passageways (16) are formed by two sides of the central slot (14) for receiving a corresponding number of contacts (18) therein. An upstanding high retention device (20) positioned at either opposite end of the housing (12), includes a pair of side arms (24) for transversely sandwiching the side edge portion (104) of the card, and an engagement arm (36) positioned between such pair of side arms (24) for longitudinally abutting against the side edge (106) of the card (100) whereby the card (100) is reliably and efficiently retained in the housing (12) by the retention device (20).
