Abstract
A shielded connector comprises a plurality of female contacts 20 and a shield cover 30. The female contacts 20 are aligned and retained in a row extending in a right and left direction in an insulative housing 10, and said shield cover 30 is mounted on the insulative housing 10. A plurality of insertion openings 11a are provided at the front of the insulative housing 10, and the male contacts of a matable connector being inserted through the insertion openings 11a into the shielded connector are engaged with the female contacts 20. The shield cover 30 is formed of an electrically conductive plate and bent in a "U" figure, and it is provided with a plurality of through holes 36. When the shield cover 30 is mounted on the insulative housing 10, covering the upper and lower surfaces and the front surface thereof, the through holes 36 of the shield cover 30 meet the insertion opening 11a of the insulative housing 10.
