The plurality of conductive parts cooperatively form an antenna integrated with the memory card retaining mechanism and connected to the circuit board.

Abstract: An electrical card connector comprises an insulative housing, a shield covering the insulative housing, a plurality of terminals received within the insulative housing, and an ejection mechanism. The insulative housing and the shield define a receiving space for receiving an electrical card. The ejection mechanism disposed on one side of the receiving space comprises a base and a movable push rod mounted within the base. A reinforced rib protruding from a surface of the rear portion of the push rod, and a corresponding receiving groove is defined on the base for receiving said the reinforced rib movable therein. A guide groove is defined on the bottom wall of the push rod, and a guide rib protrudes from the base, which is received within said guide groove and movable therein.
