Abstract: A cable connector assembly (1) comprises an electrical connector, a wire-securing element (20) and a cable (30). The connector has an insulative housing (11) and a plurality of electrical contacts (130) secured therein. Each contact has an elastic engaging portion (132). The wire-securing element has a base (21) and a plurality of receiving grooves (22) defined in a front portion of the base. Wires (31) of the cable are pressed and embedded in the receiving grooves of the wire-securing element by the engaging portions of the contacts. Thus, reliable and durable electrical connection between the connector and the cable is attained.

Abstract: An electrical connector (1) includes an insulative housing (10), a terminal insert (20), an anti-mismating device (40) and a shell (30). The insulative housing defines a receiving space (11) for receiving a complementary plug connector therein. A plurality of terminals (21) is fixed to the insulative housing. The anti-mismating device is mounted in the housing at an entrance (11a) of the receiving space, and comprises first and second push portions located adjacent two lateral side walls of the housing, forming, respectively, first and second stop portions (43a, 44a) transversely extending towards each other without touching each other. The first and second push portions are independently and recoverably depressable by the complementary connector. A noncomplementary connector is blocked from insertion into the receiving space because it can depress one, but not both, push portions, and will thus be blocked by one stop portion.
