Cable connector including rising portions for cable connection and electrical connector apparatus using the same

Abstract

For example, a cable connector including rising portions for cable connection is provided in which transmission characteristics are excellent and connection work can be easily conducted. Two pairs of signal terminals (B-E) and a ground terminal (A) placed between the pairs of signal terminals are included. These terminals (A-E) include rising portions (Ab-Eb) exposed from a terminal support member, the rising portions rising from a principal surface, which has a terminal-to-terminal direction and a length direction, of the terminal support member toward a cable connection side in a height direction. At least part of the rising portion (Ab) of the ground terminal is positioned within an area of an intersection region of a first virtual portion () positioned in the terminal-to-terminal direction between the rising portion (B) of the signal terminal that is adjacent to the ground terminal (A) and included in one of the pairs and the rising portion (C) of the signal terminal included in the other pair, and a second virtual portion (a) positioned between the same rising portions in the length direction, within at least one plane that is orthogonal to the height direction and spreads parallel to the principal surface of the terminal support member.
