1. A cable connector assembly, comprising:
- a housing;
a signal terminal and a ground terminal respectively assembled to the housing;
a cable comprising a signal conductor directly electrically connecting with the signal terminal, a metal braiding layer enclosing the signal conductor, and an outer jacket enclosing the metal braiding layer;
a strain relief member comprising a body portion defining a through hole to permit the signal conductor protruding therethrough and directly electrically connecting with the signal terminal, and a jointing portion formed with the body portion to directly connect with the ground terminal, wherein the metal braiding layer of the cable electrically connects with one of the jointing portion and body portion of the strain relief member; and
a rear cover assembled with the housing to enclose the electrical connection among the cable, the strain relief member and the signal and ground terminals.
