Abstract
A coaxial ribbon cable connector (1) consists of a cable connector (2) and a substrate connector (3). The cable connector includes an insulating case (4) having a partition wall (4a); a plurality of signal terminals (8) to which signal lines of a coaxial ribbon cable (11) are connected; a plurality of ground terminals (9) to which drain lines of the cable are connected; the signal and ground terminals being disposed on the partition wall in a back-to-back relationship to form a microstrip line; a plurality of shield terminals (10) disposed between the signal terminals and each having a short-circuit portion (10c) brought into contact with one of the ground terminal. The substrate connector includes an insulating case (33); a plurality of signal terminals (43) arranged within the insulating case; a plurality of ground terminals (44) arranged within the insulating case; a plurality of shield terminals (45) arranged within the insulating case; and the signal, ground, and shield terminals of the substrate connector being brought into contact with the signal, ground and shield terminals of the cable connector such that shield terminals are connected to the ground terminals via contact legs of the shield terminals when the cable connector is plugged into the substrate connector.
