Abstract
A connector is mateable with a mating connector along a mating direction. The connector comprises a housing, a plurality of first contacts, a plurality of second contacts and a ground plate. The housing has a plate-like portion extending in a predetermined plane which is defined by the mating direction and a pitch direction perpendicular to the mating direction. The plate-like portion has a first principal surface and a second principal surface which is opposite to the first principal surface in a predetermined direction perpendicular to both the mating direction and the pitch direction. The first contacts are held by the housing. The first contacts have first contact portions, respectively. The second contacts are held by the housing. The second contacts have second contact portions, respectively. The ground plate includes a main portion. The main portion is formed with a plurality of openings. Each of the openings pierces the main portion in the predetermined direction and has a closed periphery in the predetermined plane. The main portion is embedded in the plate-like portion by insert molding. The main portion is positioned between the first contact portions and the second contact portions in the predetermine direction.
