Abstract: An electrical connector has an insulative housing, a plurality of contacts retained in the insulative housing and a shell assembled to the insulative housing. The insulative housing has a mating face and a mating chamber depressing from the mating face and extending through the insulative housing along a front to back direction for receiving a mating plug. The contacts comprise a first contact with a first engaging point located in a left side of the mating chamber, and a second contact with a second engaging point located in a bottom side of the mating chamber and a third contact with a third engaging point located in a right side of the mating chamber and opposite to the first contacting portion, the third engaging point is located between the first engaging point and the second connecting portion along the front to back direction.

Abstract: A connector includes a connector body, a cover movably attached to the connector body, and a limiting mechanism retaining the cover to the connector body. The connector has a mating port for receiving a mating connector, a tongue with a number of contacts exposed to the mating port, and an optical module forwardly exposed to a rear side of the mating port. The cover has a base to cover a front end of the mating port, and an insertion portion extending into the mating port to cover the contacts along an up to down direction and the optical module along a front to back direction. The limiting mechanism can prevent the cover from detaching from the connector body when the cover is pulled out of the mating port.

Abstract: An electrical connector defining a receiving opening for receiving a corresponding plug includes an insulative housing, a number of contacts and an optical module attached to the insulative housing. The insulative housing has a tongue extending into the receiving opening and a cavity behind the receiving opening. Each contact has a retaining portion retained in the insulative housing, a contact portion extending to the tongue, a tail portion and a connecting portion connecting the retaining portion and the tail portion. The optical module is forwardly assembled into the cavity from a rear side of the insulative housing and exposed to the receiving opening. The connecting portions are offset relative to the contact portions of the corresponding contacts in a transverse direction so as to leave said cavity open rearward and allow said optical module to be assembled into the cavity from the rear side of the insulative housing.

Abstract: A connector having a chamber (101) for insertion of a plug includes an optical module (4) having lenses (45) exposed to the chamber for transmitting optical data; and an insulative housing having a receiving slot (115) located behind the chamber (101) and communicating with the chamber for receiving the optical module (4), and a top wall (111) for covering the receiving slot (115). The top wall has a set of openings passing therethrough for exposing key side edges of the receiving slot to exterior.
