Abstract: A connector mounting apparatus includes a mounting bracket and a receiving member. A receiving space is defined in the mounting bracket. The receiving member includes a main body, a first resilient resisting tab extending outward from a base panel of the main body, and a first resilient contacting tab extending inward from the base panel to resiliently abut a connector interface received inside the main body. The main body is received in the receiving space and the first resisting tab resiliently abuts an inner surface of the receiving space.

Abstract: A connector mounting apparatus includes a hollow receiving member, and a securing bracket. The receiving member is used for receiving a connector interface. A securing opening is defined in the securing bracket to receive the receiving member. The securing bracket includes a first resilient contacting tab extending from a first edge of the securing opening. A free end of the first resilient contacting tab extends towards a center of the securing opening. The first resilient contacting tab is used for contacting the receiving member when the receiving member is received in the securing opening.
