Preferably, both the socket member 100 and the header member 200 are made of a shielding electromagnetic material.
It will be appreciated that the nature of electromagnetic waves is such that oscillations of varying electric and magnetic fields propagate in space, and that when electromagnetic waves propagate in a conductive medium, the amplitudes of the electric and magnetic fields decay exponentially with increasing distance, so that the amplitudes of the electric and magnetic fields are greatest at the surface of the conductive medium, deeper into the interior, and less, so that the conductive medium acts to shield electromagnetic signals.
In most cases, the electromagnetic shielding material can be made of metals such as copper, aluminum, steel and the like, but for constant and extremely low frequency magnetic fields, materials such as ferrite and the like can also be used as the electromagnetic shielding material. In particular, the materials of the first shielding member 310, the second shielding member 320, the third shielding member 330 and the fourth shielding member 340 are made of materials with flexibility and electromagnetic shielding properties, such as metal silica gel, rubber, plastic and the like, namely conductive rubber or conductive cloth, namely the flexible characteristics are adopted, so that the sealing effect is improved, liquid is prevented from entering, and the transmission of electricity or signals is prevented from being influenced.

The contact stability of the receptacle terminals 610 and the plug terminals 620 can also be ensured due to the tight connection of the receptacle module and the plug module.
Simply, the first shielding member 310 does not deviate from this range even if the axial movement occurs due to the blocking of the protrusion 111 and the stepped end surface 250 of the third shielding member 330/header 200, and in particular, a positioning groove may be provided on the inner wall of the insertion end or the connection hole 110 to further restrict the axial movement of the first shielding member 310.
