Patent ID: 7604519

Claim:
A connector assembly adapted for electrically connecting with a complementary connector along a mating direction, comprising: an insulative housing defining a plurality of receiving passages; and a plurality of conductive contacts housed in corresponding receiving passages, each conductive contact comprising a first contacting finger and a second contacting finger extending substantially along an axis defined by said mating direction and respectively exposed in corresponding receiving passage of the insulative housing adapted for electrically engaging with the same contact of the complementary connector, each contacting finger comprising an inclined branch and a contacting point formed at free end of the inclined branch; and wherein the projections of the contacting points of the first and second contacting fingers along a lateral direction perpendicular to said mating direction form a first gap, and the smallest vertical distance between the contacting point of the first contacting finger to the inclined branch of the second contacting finger forms a second gap, and wherein the second gap is always larger than the first gap; further comprising a spacer assembled to the supporting portion of the insulative housing and sealing the receiving passages of the insulative housing from rear.
