Abstract
A connector is mountable on an object in an up-down direction and mateable with a mating connector along a front-rear direction perpendicular to the up-down direction. The mating connector comprises first mating contacts and second mating contacts. The connector comprises a holding member, first contacts and second contacts. Each of the first contacts has a first contact portion, a first fixed portion and a first coupling portion. The first contact portions are brought into contact with the first mating contacts. Each of the second contacts has a second contact portion, a second fixed portion and a second coupling portion. The second contact portions are brought into contact with the second mating contacts. The first coupling portions of the first contacts and the second coupling portions of the second contacts overlap with each other. The second coupling portion intersects with both the front-rear direction and the up-down direction.
