Shielded connector and method of connecting it with a shielded cable

Abstract

A shielding shell () is integrated into a housing () by insert molding, whereas a shell connecting member () is mounted on an end of a braided wire () of a shielded cable () by crimping a crimping ring () and can be brought into contact with the inner surface of the shielding shell (). A cover () is mounted on the rear end of the housing () to retain the shell connecting member (). As the crimping ring () is crimped, ribs () are formed to project and each of them is engageable with any one of turn preventing recesses () arranged at a plurality of positions along circumferential direction on the inner circumferential surface of the cover (). Thus, the shell connecting member () is prevented from turning, thereby causing no abrasion at contact portions with the shielding shell ().
