Abstract (en)

The present invention relates to a housing for an electrical connector, said housing comprising: a electrically insulative body that extends along an imaginary longitudinal axis and defines i) a mating surface and a connector surface positioned generally perpendicular to said mating surface; ii) a contact receiving cavity that defines an opening at said mating surface, intersects the imaginary longitudinal axis of said body, and extends generally perpendicular to said mating surface; and iii) a heat dissipation opening defined by said planar surface of said body, said heat dissipation opening fluidly connected to said contact receiving cavity. <IMAGE>
