Abstract

See full text

An electrical connector includes a front half (2), a back half (3) assembled to the front half, a plurality of circuit boards (4) and a plurality of leading caps (10). The front half has a front surface (23), an upper surface (20), and a lower surface (21). A top tongue (7) and a bottom tongue (8) extend respectively from the upper surface and the lower surface along a mating direction. The leading caps are positioned between the top tongue and the bottom tongue. The circuit boards are mounted in the combination of the front half and the back half and extend beyond the front surface. Each leading cap includes two inclined faces (13) facing forwardly for mating with a complementary connector (11). A swallow-tailed slot (14) is defined at a rear end of the leading cap to engage with a front edge of a corresponding circuit board.
