13. An electrical cable connector assembly comprising:
-
an insulative housing defining a front mating section extending forwardly from a front face of a rear retention section; a plurality of contacts disposed in the housing; a metallic shielding member attached to the housing and defining a rear plate covering the front face of the rear section and a front frame section enclosing the front mating section; a metallic cover shell including a main cover shell defining a pair of blocking portions each with a first through hole extending therethrough in a front-to-back direction, said pair of blocking portions commonly defining an opening therebetween in a transverse direction perpendicular to said front-to-back direction, said opening being open in one vertical side so as to allow the housing and the associated shell to be assembled to the main shell in a vertical direction perpendicular to both said front-to-back direction and said transverse direction with the mating section of the housing and the frame section of the shielding member extending through the opening and forwardly away from the blocking portions under condition that the rear plate of the shielding member forwardly abuts directly and intimately against back faces of the pair of blocking portions; and a planar metallic front shell directly and intimately attached on front faces of the pair of blocking portions;
whereinsaid front shell is of a full frame structure defining an opening snugly circumferentially receiving the frame section of the shielding member and the associated mating section of the housing therein. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15)
