In a shielded connector having a connector housing subjected to conductive electroplating, a conductive shield ring is fitted into a housing chamber of the connector housing and a partner-side shield contact portion is inserted into the inside of the shield ring. The shield contact has resilient contact pieces and is slidable within a predetermined range within the shield ring. The shield contact has a split portion so that is has resilience in the diameter expanding direction thereof. The shield contact is locked with the shield ring. A pressure-insertion space is formed within the housing chamber and the shield ring is provided with pressure-insertion portions.

Shielded connector

A shielded connector for direct installation for a device includes an insulating housing body; a flange of the insulating housing body, which is to be assembled with a device so that the insulating housing body is shield-connected to the device, the flange being entirely covered with a conductive plated layer; and a conductive contact plate deposited on the conductive plated layer on the first principal surface side of the flange and having an elastic contact piece to be brought into contact with the device on the second principal surface side of the flange. In this configuration, the flange of the housing body can be surely connected to the device for its grounding.
