Abstract: A card edge connector includes an elongated insulative housing forming a central slot with two rows of terminals disposed by two sides of the central slot and retained in the housing. The housing includes two opposite lengthwise walls and two end walls connected to two opposite ends of the corresponding lengthwise walls, and a bottom wall linked to both the lengthwise walls and the end walls below the central slot. A removable key element is assembled to the two lengthwise walls and intersecting with the central slot. A receiving cavity is formed in the bottom wall to receive a light emitting device located under the key element and mounted upon the printed circuit board on which the connector is seated.
