  • Electrical connector with ground frame
    Patent number: 9356401
    Abstract: An electrical connector includes a housing, contacts, ground shields, and a ground frame. The housing extends between a front end and an opposite rear end. The front end is configured to be mated with a mating connector. The contacts and ground shields are held by the housing. The ground shields at least partially surround the contacts to provide electrical shielding for the contacts. The ground frame has a first side coupled to the rear end of the housing and a second side facing the circuit board. The contacts have terminating ends and the ground shields have mounting ends. The terminating ends and the mounting ends extend from the rear end of the housing through the ground frame for termination to the circuit board. The ground frame engages the ground shields to electrically join the ground shields.
