    Abstract: A fastening mechanism for retaining a heat sink upon the CPU includes a fastening seat surrounding the connector, and a pair of fastening clips. The fastening seat includes four alignment posts at four corners, and the pair of fastening clips are attached at two corresponding diagonal corners. Each fastening clip includes a mounting section secured to the corresponding post, a latching section for temporarily holding the heat sink, and a resilient arm for upwardly urging the heat sink. Each alignment post is equipped with a screw nut and a coil spring so as to reinforce the downward pressing forces against the heat sink for assuring reliable connection between the CPU and the contacts of the electrical connector for better electrical transmission and intimate contact between the CPU and the heat sink for efficient heat dissipation.

    Abstract: A receptacle connector for mating with a plug connector having a mating tongue and a latch thereof, includes an insulative housing defining a mating slot extending along a longitudinal direction to receive the mating tongue of the plug connector, and an outer metallic shield defining a primary space to receive the housing and a secondary space communicatively beside the primary space to receive the latch of the plug connector. A plurality of contacts are disposed in the housing to mechanically and electrically connect to the mating tongue. An inner metallic shield is attached upon a long side of the housing to separate the primary space and the secondary space from each other in a transverse direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction.

    Abstract: An electrical connector includes a housing, a plurality of contacts located in each wall of the housing and having grounding contacts and differential-pair contacts, and a grounding bar. The grounding bar includes a pair of lower spring fingers respectively contacting lower regions of the ground contacts in a transverse direction, and a pair of upper spring fingers respectively contacting upper regions of the ground contacts in the transverse direction, an upper transverse bar linked between the pair of upper spring fingers along a longitudinal direction, a lower transverse bar linked between the pair of lower spring fingers along the longitudinal direction, the pair of upper spring fingers extend upwardly from the lower transverse bar and a transverse base having retaining device attached to a lower portion of the housing. The pair of lower spring fingers upwardly extend from the transverse base.
