ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector includes an elongate insulative housing defining a central slot for receiving a module therein. latch device is positioned at each end of the housing. Each latch device includes a plastic member integrally extending from the housing, and a metal member cooperating with the plastic ember. A first plate of the metal member abuts against an outer surface of the plastic member and a first tang extending from the first plate, incorporates the first plate to confine the plastic member therebetween. The module can be released from the connector by applying an outward force to free ends of the latch devices. A second tang extending from the first plate abuts against the plastic member when the latch device reaches its outermost position thereby preventing over-extension and breakage thereof. A third tang downwardly extending from the first plate is received in a recess defined in an outer surface of the plastic member for limiting inward movement of the latch device thereby further preventing breakage thereof.
