    摘要: An electrical connector includes a receptacle connector having a first insulating housing containing a plurality of first contacts and a first shielding shell disposed so as to enclose contact portions of the first contacts; a plug connector including a second insulating housing containing a plurality of second contacts and a second shielding shell disposed so as to enclose contact portions of the second contacts; and mounting means for mounting the first shielding shell on an object and defining with the first shielding shell a circumferential channel into which a front end of the second shielding shell is to be fitted. The first insulating housing has a front contact enclosure to enclose the contact portions of the first contacts; the first shielding shell has a front enclosure into which said front contact enclosure is fitted; and the mounting means has a central opening for receiving the front enclosure and a stepped edge around the central opening so as to define with the first shielding shell the circumferential channel into which the front end of the second shielding shell is to be fitted to make electrical connections between the first and second shielding shells.
