Patent ID: 8246389

Claim:
An electrical connector comprising: an insulative housing; a plurality of contact terminals received in the insulative housing; a plurality of converting terminals; and a paddle board comprising a first through third faces, a plurality of conductive pads formed in the second and third faces, a plurality of conductive sections electrically connecting with the contact terminals, and a plurality of conductive members electrically connecting with the converting terminals, a selected first conductive section of the plurality of conductive sections being electrically connected with a selected first conductive member of the plurality of conductive members via a selected first conductive pad of the plurality of conductive pads, a selected second conductive section of the plurality of conductive sections being electrically connected with a selected second conductive member of the plurality of conductive members via a selected second conductive pad of the plurality of conductive pads, a selected third conductive section of the plurality of conductive sections being electrically connected with a selected third conductive member of the plurality of conductive members via a selected third conductive pad of the plurality of conductive pads, said selected third conductive pad being coupled with the selected first conductive pad.
