Abstract
A connector includes: a card edge connector; a first cable drawn out from the card edge connector in a first direction; a first terminal disposed in the card edge connector and connected to the first cable; a receptacle into and from which the card edge connector is inserted and extracted; a second cable drawn out from the receptacle in a second direction; and a second terminal disposed in the receptacle and connected to the second cable. Insertion/extraction directions of the card edge connector are substantially perpendicular to at least one of the first direction and the second direction. The card edge connector includes a first end face which is substantially parallel to the insertion/extraction directions, and the receptacle includes a first wall face which is substantially parallel to the insertion/extraction directions. In a state where the card edge connector and the receptacle are coupled to each other, the first end face and the first wall face are in contact with each other.
