Abstract

A multipolar connector includes a first connector and a second connector. The first connector includes inner terminals arranged in columns and an insulating component holding the inner terminals. The second connector includes inner terminals arranged in columns and an insulating component holding the inner terminals. One of the first connector and second connector further includes an outer terminal connected to the ground potential and held by the insulating component. A shielding component extends from the outer terminal along a direction in which the columns of inner terminals extend and is held by the insulating component, and the shielding component is located between adjacent columns of inner terminals when the inner terminals of the first connector and second connector are in contact and engaged with each other. Compared with the related art, the multipolar connector of the present disclosure does not need to form the shielding component by separately insert-molding.
