Patent attributes
A connector assembly (100) includes a housing (2) defining a number of passageways (23, 24) along a mating direction, a number of conductive contacts (3) interferentially received in the passageways of the housing, a circuit board (4) electrically connecting with the conductive contacts and comprising opposite front and rear surfaces and opposite top and bottom edges connecting with the front and rear surfaces, a cable (9) electrically connecting with the circuit board, and comprising an inner conductor (91) a metal braiding layer (92) and an outer jacket enclosing the metal braiding layer, and a strain relief member (5) including a strain relief section (52) grasping the cable and at least one connecting portion (510) electrically connecting with the circuit board. The connecting portion of the strain relief member contacts the opposite front and rear surfaces and locates adjacent to one of the opposite top and bottom edges of the circuit board at the same time.
