ABSTRACT:
A smart card connector with signal blade contacts having signal tails (34a) lying at the rear end of the connector frame, and with the connector being provided with a shield structure (110) that prevents a person from fraudulently contacting the signal tails during use of the connector. The shield structure includes a grounded conductive shield (40) having a rear portion that lies rearward of the signal tails. The conductive shield is mounted on an insulative barrier (60) that has a front portion (112) lying over the signal tails during use of the connector. The insulative barrier is pivotally mounted on the frame, between an open position wherein the shield structure leaves a region above the signal tails exposed during soldering, and a protect position wherein the shield structure blocks a region above and rearward of the signal tails.
