Abstract
A shielded connector is provided with an improved shielding characteristic. The shielded connector includes male and female shielded connectors (,). A section of an inner conductor (,) of a shielded cable (,) that is not covered by an outer conductor (,) and a portion of an inner terminal (,) at and near an inner crimping portion (,) that is fastened to the leading end of the inner conductor (,) are covered on three sides by a covering portion (,). Accordingly, shielding characteristic can be improved remarkably. By connecting the male and female shielded connectors (,) with opening surfaces of the covering portions (,) thereof faced in opposite directions, radiation characteristic can be balanced. Therefore, an influence on a high-frequency signal transmitting through the inner conductor (,) can be reduced when it is passing through the shielded connectors (,), with the result that shielding characteristic can be improved.
