The present disclosure provides an electrical connector including an insulating housing, a number of terminals and a lossy member. The terminals include a number of ground terminals and a number of signal terminals. The ground terminals and the signal terminals are set adjacently to each other but do not contact each other. The ground terminals do not directly contact the lossy member. As a result, installation consistency of the ground terminals can be achieved, thereby improving the electrical performance of the electrical connector.

An electrical contact is stamped from sheet metal and includes a planar main body, a resilient upper contacting arm extending from an upper end of the main body and a resilient lower contacting arm extending from a lower end of the main body. The upper contacting arm includes an upper oblique section and an upper contacting section at a free end thereof, and the lower contacting arm includes a lower oblique section and a lower contacting section at the free end thereof. The width of the contacting arm is similar to that of the main body while the width of the contacting section is smaller than one half of that of the main body.

An electrical connector for connecting to flat-wire conductors of a flexible circuit (FC) is described. The electrical connector includes an elongated body, a split-blade terminal, and a spring terminal. The elongated body has a longitudinal axis. The split-blade terminal has two prongs separated by a distance and is configured to interface with an electrical terminal of an electrical device. The spring terminal is configured to mate with one or more of the flat-wire conductors within a connection area of the FC. The spring terminal and the split-blade terminal are positioned on the longitudinal axis at opposing ends of the electrical connector.

An electrical connector includes an insulative housing, and plural rows of contact modules therein. Each contact module includes plural contacts integrally formed within an insulator/wafter which extends in a longitudinal direction. In each contact module, each contact includes a main body with opposite contacting arms on upper and lower sections wherein the contacts in the same contact carrier are originally linked with the neighboring contacts around lateral sides of the main body for insert-molding consideration, and the corresponding linking sections are removed for disconnecting the neighboring the contacts after insert-molding to form the final complete contact module. Each contacting arm forms a hole with two spaced beams by two sides of the hole. The contact may further include a holding tab exposed in the hole so as to allow a gripping tool to be engaged thereon for assembling the contact module into the channel of the housing.

A socket connector assembly for a communication system includes a socket connector having a socket housing holding socket contacts having deflectable spring beams. The socket connector assembly includes a cable assembly coupled to the socket connector having an outer housing holding a paddle card with paddle card contacts interfacing with the separable mating interfaces of the socket contacts. The cable assembly includes cables terminated to the paddle card coupled to corresponding paddle card contacts. The socket connector assembly includes a spring plate coupled to the outer housing secured to the host circuit board to press the cable assembly downward toward the host circuit board to compress the deflectable spring beams of the socket contacts.
