Abstract: An edge connector is configured to connect to a circuit board. The edge connector includes a base wall, a first terminal mount extending upwardly from the base wall, the first terminal mount having a plurality of passageways, terminals mounted in the passageways, a second terminal mount extending upwardly from the base wall, the second terminal being spaced from the first terminal mount, the second terminal mount having a plurality of passageways extending therethrough, terminals mounted in the passageways of the second terminal mount, and a moveable latch extending from the upper surface of the base wall, the latch positioned between the first and second terminal mounts. Each terminal mount extends along part of the length of the base wall such that a platform is formed by the upper surface of the base wall rearwardly of the terminal mounts. A latch protection wall extends from each terminal mount to the rear end of the base wall, and the latch protection walls are proximate to the latch.
