Abstract
A connector having an improved force for locking a shielding terminal. The connector (10) has a housing (20) and a ground terminal (50) is mounted into a shielded casing (C) after a shielding terminal (15) is partly locked in a cavity (21) of the housing (20) is partly locked by a locking portion (25) and then fully locked by touching pieces (59) of the ground terminal (50). The connector (10) can doubly lock the shielding terminal (15). Hence, the locking force for locking the shielding terminal (15) can be improved.
