Abstract

To provide a multi-pole connector in which projected male connectors are protected from interference from the outside, and a smooth fitting of the connectors can be achieved. In the multi-pole connector, male connectors are mounted on one frame in such a manner that the male connectors are projected from the frame, and female connectors for the male connectors are mounted on the other frame. Connector-protecting ribs are formed at a peripheral portion of the one frame, and are projected to a height equal to or higher than a height of distal ends of the male connectors, and rib reception guides for the ribs are formed on the other frame.
