Abstract: An electrical connector comprises an insulative housing, a shield, a number of terminals, a shielding blade and a pair of guide posts. The housing includes a cover and a base separately manufactured by injection molding. Thus, a height of a corresponding mold for forming the cover and the base is decreased thereby promoting the free flow of molten plastic and enhancing the strength of the housing especially terminal passageways thereof. In assembly, the shield, the cover and the base are secured together by riveting the guide posts. The blade is disposed in the cover and the base for eliminating cross talk between the terminals. The blade electrically contacts the shield which is conductively connected to the guide posts.
