Patent ID: 7094092

Claim:
A cable connector assembly adapted for mounting in a printed circuit board, comprising: a first connector member adapted for electrical connection with a mating cable set, comprising: a first dielectric housing having a tongue plate at front side; a plurality of first contacts received in the first housing, each first contact including a mating portion at a free end and a tail portion at an opposite end adapted for electrically contacting with the mating cable set; a first shell enclosing the housing; and a grounding bar attached to the first housing and enclosing the tongue plate adapted for cooperatively fulfilling Electro Magnetic Interference requirement; a second connector member adapted for electrically connection with the first connector, comprising: a second dielectric housing; a plurality of second contacts received in the second housing, each second contact having a contacting portion at a free end adapted for electrically contacting with a mating portion of a corresponding first contact of the first housing; a second shell enclosing the second housing, a room reserved between the second housing and the second shell adapted for receiving the tongue plate with the grounding bar, thereby establishing a grounding path from the mating cable set to the printed circuit board.
