Abstract:
1. An electrical connector comprising: a terminal module having an inner dielectric insulator and a plurality of conductive terminals mounted in the insulator, the insulator including a forwardly projecting mating portion; a metallic shield substantially surrounding the inner insulator and including a resilient latching beam, the latching beam being adjacent to a side of the mating portion and including a driving portion and an outwardly extending latching portion; an outer dielectric cover surrounding a major portion of the shield, the outer dielectric cover including a post and a stopper portion; a button pivotally attached to the cover, the button including an operating base, a sleeve holding the post therein and is pivotably movable about the post and a resilient actuator arm integrally formed with the operating base; wherein when the operating base is inwardly depressed, the resilient actuator arm is pivotally movable about the post of the outer cover and is elastically stopped at the stopper portion.
