Abstract
A connector is mateable with a mating connector including a mating shell. The connector includes a maintaining member. The maintaining member has a first portion and a second portion. The first portion has a first arm and a first maintaining portion supported by the first arm. The second portion has a second arm and a second maintaining portion supported by the second arm. When the connector and the mating connector are mated with each other, a side portion of the mating shell is inserted between a front end of the first portion and a front end of the second portion. When the connector is in a mated state where the connector is mated with the mating connector, the maintaining member holds the side portion of the mating shell by the first maintaining portion and the second maintaining portion to maintain the mated state.
