Patent ID: 7160153

Claim:
An electrical connector comprising: a connecting unit including a dielectric seat having a sleeve end portion that is formed with a terminal-receiving space and that has opposite first and second open ends for access into said terminal-receiving space, and a coupling end portion connected fixedly to said first open end of said sleeve end portion, a conductive terminal disposed in said terminal-receiving space in said sleeve end portion of said dielectric seat, said conductive terminal having a first conducting end portion extending toward said second open end of said sleeve end portion, and a second conducting end portion opposite to said first conducting end portion and extending outwardly of said first open end of said sleeve end portion, and a metal shielding sleeve disposed around and covering said sleeve end portion of said dielectric seat; a metal shielding housing formed with an accommodating space and having an opening for access into said accommodating space, said metal shielding housing permitting extension of said coupling end portion of said dielectric seat into said accommodating space via said opening for connection with said coupling end portion of said dielectric seat; and an intermediate metal sleeve connected electrically to both said metal shielding sleeve of said connecting unit and said metal shielding housing, said metal shielding sleeve projecting from said intermediate metal sleeve.
