Abstract
Abstract A RJ-receptacle connector with anti-incorrect-insertion device comprises a housing defining a receiving space for electrically receiving a complementary plug connector therein. A terminal insert is adapted to be arranged to the housing and includes a plurality of terminals integrally formed thereof. Each terminal includes a contact portion extending into the receiving space, and a solder tail extends downward from a bottom face of the housing. Anti-incorrect-insertion device is arranged in an entrance of the receiving space and blocking insertion of other connectors except the complementary plug connector.
