Abstract
A board connector including an inner terminal including a connection portion for connecting to an inner conductor, an outer terminal, and a terminal unit-side dielectric body. The outer terminal includes a terminal-side covering portion covering the inner terminal in a state in which the connection portion protrudes outward, and a terminal-side extension portion extending from the terminal-side covering portion and extending alongside the connection portion. The terminal unit-side dielectric body is provided between the inner terminal and the outer terminal at an inside of the terminal-side covering portion so as to support the inner terminal.
