Abstract

A receptacle used to be mounted on a receptacle-side substrate includes: a frame body; a plurality of cantilevers formed to extend from the frame body and including a substrate separating portion extending in a direction away from the receptacle-side substrate; a contact cover disposed on an opposite side of the receptacle-side substrate with the substrate separating portion of the plurality of cantilevers interposed therebetween, and covering the substrate separating portion of the plurality of cantilevers; and a plurality of conductive patterns formed above the plurality of cantilevers with an insulating layer interposed therebetween. The frame body forms a plug accommodating space for accommodating a plug. The plug accommodating space is formed so as to surround the substrate separating portion of the plurality of cantilevers.
