Abstract
Abstract The present invention relates to an electrical connector with grounding effect, which mainly has grounding part inserted inside the insulating body contacted with the jacket layer enclosed over the signal transmitting units with fixing and contacting effect for generating electrical characteristics, such that the cable assembly of the electrical connector has grounding effect without any grounding line positioned inside cable assembly; wherein, the grounding part has contacting part for providing the jacket layer to contact with, besides it further comprise predetermined grounding terminals extended directly from the grounding part for inserting into the insulating body; such that the cable assembly of the electrical connector of the present invention has grounding effect without any grounding line positioned inside the cable assembly; furthermore, it also can lessen the soldering process and prevent the mistaken probability of the soldering process generated such that the entire assembly process and the relative cost can be reduced.
