Abstract
A plug connector includes a housing and multiple plug terminals. The housing has at least a base portion housing the multiple plug terminals, and a lock mechanism, and a pair of side portions each provided on both right and left sides of the base portion. At each of the side portions in a pair, a step portion is formed. In a state in which the plug connector is fitted in the receptacle connector, side surfaces of the step portions face the receptacle connector through a clearance, and front surfaces of the side portions are closer to the receptacle connector than the side surfaces of the step portions are to the receptacle connector.
