A connector which is attachable to a cable having a signal conductor and a grounding conductor and which is mateable with a mating connector having a mating grounding member, wherein:

• the connector has a fitting portion and a cable holding portion located rearward of the fitting portion in a front-rear direction;
• the connector comprises a grounding member, a signal terminal, a holding member and a cable fixing member;
• the signal terminal is to be connected to the signal conductor;
• the holding member holds the signal terminal;
• the grounding member is attached to the holding member;
• the grounding member has a cable receiving portion and a grounding connection portion located forward of the cable receiving portion in the front-rear direction;
• the cable receiving portion forms at least a part of the cable holding portion;
• the grounding connection portion forms at least a part of the fitting portion;
• the grounding connection portion is to be connected to the mating grounding member when the connector is mated with the mating connector;
• the cable fixing member has a clamp portion clamping the grounding conductor;
• the cable fixing member is fixed to the cable receiving portion;
• the cable extends from the cable receiving portion in an intersecting direction intersecting with the front-rear direction;
• the cable fixing member connects the grounding conductor to the grounding member;
• and
• the clamp portion overlaps with the fitting portion in the intersecting direction.
