Abstract
An electrical connector for a coaxial flat cable, includes pairs of contacts, each consisting of signal contacts and ground contacts and an insulating body for securely holding the contacts. Connection terminals of the pairs of the contacts are arranged in every pair in a row in a flat plane so that the signal contacts and the ground contacts are alternately arranged. The contact portions of the signal contacts and the contact portions of the ground contacts are arranged in every pair in one row and also the other row. The contact portions of the signal contacts of two adjacent pairs are arranged in different rows and the contact portions of the ground contacts of the two adjacent pairs are arranged in different rows. In another aspect, the contact portions of the pairs of contacts of odd numbers and even numbers are arranged in every pair in one row and also in the other row, respectively, so that the signal contacts and the ground contacts are alternately arranged. The contact portions of the signal contacts and the ground contacts in the one row are substantially in opposition to the contact portions of the ground contacts and the signal contacts in the other row, respectively.
