Abstract: An electrical connector assembly comprises a first connector, a pair of second connectors, a circuit board and a bracket. The first connector includes a plurality of terminals having mounting tails. A pair of indicating devices mounted to the first connector each has conductive wires extending therefrom. Circuit traces are longitudinally arranged on the circuit board. First ends of the circuit traces are connected to the mounting tails while second ends of the circuit traces are connected to an intermediate device connected to a mother board. The circuit traces are arranged so that cross talk therebetween can be effectively reduced.
