A connector for an electronic device has a plug with signal contacts and ground contacts arranged in an alternating sequence in two parallel rows. A shield portion is provided on each ground contact so as to cover an area around adjacent signal contacts so as to reduce crosstalk between adjacent signal contacts.

A plug-in connector includes a connector main body having contacts connected to a cable, and a housing accommodating the connector main body. Latch springs are respectively attached to first and second surfaces of the housing, and respectively have first engagement portions which engage, in a locked state, second engagement portions of a jack connector to be connected with the plug-in connector. An operating member, which cooperates with the latch springs, includes latch releasing portions respectively engaging with the latch springs and disengaging the latch springs from the second engagement portions when the plug-in connector is pulled whereby the plug-in connector is released from the locked state.
