Electrical connector assembly and its manufacturing method
View Patent ↗An electrical connector assembly and its manufacturing method are described, wherein the electrical connector assembly includes a bridging conductive component. The multiple conductive terminals achieve electrical connection through the bridging conductive component without the use of jumper wires, meeting the requirements for signal transmission in the electrical connector assembly. The manufacturing method of the electrical connector assembly involves the step of combining multiple electrical connector components with the bridging conductive component.
