The present invention provides a shielding assembly for a connector assembly including a connector and a counterpart connector. The shielding assembly includes a shield member having a shield wall and at least one spring element for making electrical contact between the shield wall and the counterpart connector along a first electrical conduction path in the mated situation of the connector and the counterpart connector. The spring element includes a first portion being configured for making electrical contact with the counterpart connector and a second portion for providing a spring force to the first portion. The spring element is configured for having at least a first position in the unmated situation of the connector and the counterpart connector and a second position in the mated situation of the connector and the counterpart connector, such that in the first position the second portion is arranged at a first separation from the shield wall and in the second position the second portion is arranged at a second separation from the shield wall, wherein the second separation is larger than the first separation.
