Abstract:
A receptacle connector includes a contact assembly having a dielectric carrier holding contacts, which may be overmolded by the dielectric carrier. The receptacle connector includes a housing holding the contact assembly having a mating end mated with a plug connector and a mounting end mounted to the circuit board. The housing has first and second side walls and first and second end walls. The housing has a card slot open at the top for receiving the plug connector and a contact assembly cavity open at the bottom for receiving the contact assembly. The housing may have positioning ribs extending from the first and second side walls to position the contact assembly within the cavity and/or strengthening ribs extending across the cavity to connect the side walls at a location remote from the end walls.

Claim (Index 15):
A receptacle connector configured to mate with a plug connector, the receptacle connector comprising:\n a contact assembly having a dielectric carrier holding contacts, the contacts having mating ends configured for electrical connection with the plug connector, the contacts having terminating ends configured for electrical connection with a circuit board, the contacts having intermediate sections between the mating ends and the terminating ends, the intermediate sections passing through the dielectric carrier, the dielectric carrier having channels extending between first and second sides of the contact assembly; and a housing holding the contact assembly, the housing having a mating end at a top of the housing configured to mate with the plug connector and a mounting end at a bottom of the housing configured to be mounted to the circuit board, the housing having first and second side walls extending between the top and the bottom, the housing having first and second end walls extending between the top and the bottom, the housing having a card slot open at the top for receiving the plug connector with the mating ends of the contacts being exposed in the card slot for mating electrical connection with the plug connector, the housing including a contact assembly cavity open at the bottom for receiving the contact assembly, the housing including strengthening ribs extending between the first and second side walls to connect the first side wall to the second side wall at a location remote from the first end wall and remote from the second end wall, the strengthening ribs being received in corresponding channels of the dielectric carrier.
