The present invention relates to an electrical connector with an electrically insulating contact carrier and with at least one electrically conducting contact element which is held in the contact carrier. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a manufacturing method for manufacturing a connector of this type. Changes in dimension in the geometry of the contact carrier and also fluctuations in spacing and geometry in the enclosing shielding cause impedance inhomogeneities in the signal propagation direction that adversely influence the signal quality. Furthermore, it may be necessary to purposefully set the impedance so as to differ from the nominal impedance. An electrical connector is therefore proposed with an electrically insulating contact carrier () and with at least one electrically conducting contact element () which is held in the contact carrier (), wherein at least one impedance correction element () is arranged in the contact carrier () for setting the impedance of the connector () in the region in which the at least one contact element () is arranged.
