Abstract

An electrical connector includes an electrically insulative holder member, a signal module formed of a circuit board with longitudinal terminal holes, circuit lines, electrical contacts and via-holes, metal contact terminals and metal mounting terminals, and a metal shield. The metal contact terminals have rear soldering end portions thereof respectively soldered to respective circuit lines, front contact portions thereof positioned in front ends of the longitudinal terminal holes of the circuit board and middle suspension arms thereof connected between the rear soldering end portions and the front contact portions and suspending below the longitudinal terminal holes. The electrical contacts of the circuit board are positioned in respective bottom contact holes of the tongue plate. The circuit lines electrically connect the electrical contacts and the metal contact terminals to the via-holes. The surface area of each circuit line may be modified to adjust impedance, reducing interference.
