Abstract

The present invention relates to a receptacle connector comprising a plurality of contacts for electrically connecting a plug connector and a substrate coupled to an electronic device; an insulation part to which the contacts are coupled; a shell to which the insulation part is coupled; a cover to which the shell is coupled; and a sealing member coupled to the shell so as to seal a gap between the electronic device and the shell. The shell includes a shell body; a support member; and a protruding member formed on the support member. The support member protrudes forwards from the cover and is coupled to the cover so as to be located on the outside of the cover, and the protruding member protrudes outwards from the support member and is coupled to the support member so as to limit a distance by which the sealing member can move rearwards.
