Abstract
A configuration ensuring a connector to be fixed to a connector housing with high water-tightness, free of damaging or breaking due to external force, and achieving high shielding performance and reliability is provided. The connector includes a terminal that is conductive, an intermediate insulating member that contains the terminal, and an outer conductor that is conductive and contains the intermediate insulating member. The connector housing includes an outer conductor holding part provided with an outer conductor insertion hole through which the outer conductor is inserted and a front outer conductor containing cavity that is formed on a front side of the outer conductor holding part and has a larger cross-sectional area than the outer conductor insertion hole. The connector is fixed to the connector housing with a tab welded to a front surface of the outer conductor holding part, the tab being integrally formed with the outer conductor, and with a potting material filled in a portion in the front outer conductor containing cavity close to the front surface of the outer conductor holding part.
