Abstract
A receptacle connector prevents a plug from being obliquely inserted with a simple configuration. Receptacle connectorhas: a hollow rectangular shape shield case () which is made by machining a metal plate and which includes fitting slot; and a housing () which is covered by the shield case () and in which contacts () to be connected with terminal parts () of an inserted plug () are disposed. In the shield case (), a projecting part () is formed extending along one side of the fitting slot () by denting an upper plate part (), which defines the accommodating part () accommodating the plug (), to project toward an accommodating region (). An end surface () of this projecting part () on the fitting slot () side is closer to the fitting slot () side than the contacts () and forms a plane orthogonal to the upper plate part ().
