Abstract
A connector (10) according to the present disclosure includes a first contact (30a), a second contact (30b), and an insulator (20). The insulator (20) includes a first attachment portion (21) to which the first contact (30a) is attached and a second attachment portion (22) that is formed continuously with the first attachment portion (21) and to which the second contact (30b) is attached. The first attachment portion (21) includes a first wall portion (213) to which the first contact (30a) is attached. The second attachment portion (22) includes a second wall portion (222b) that is separated from the first wall portion (213) and to which the second contact (30b) is attached.

A connector comprising:
- an insulator including a first attachment portion to which a first contact is attached and a second attachment portion that is formed continuously with the first attachment portion and to which a second contact is attached, each of the first contact and the second contact comprising a conductive material,
- wherein the first attachment portion includes a first wall portion to which the first contact is attached,
- wherein the second attachment portion includes a second wall portion that is separated from the first wall portion and to which the second contact is attached, and
- wherein the first wall portion and the second wall portion are parallel to one another and connected to each other by a side wall portion that runs perpendicular to the first and second wall portions, wherein the first wall portion extends from the side wall portion in a first direction and the second wall portion extends from the side wall portion in a second direction, and wherein the first direction is opposite the second direction.
A connector module comprising:
- a first connector including:
- a first contact comprising a conductive material,

- wherein the fourth attachment portion includes a fourth wall portion that is separated from the third wall portion and to which the fourth contact is attached,
- wherein the first wall portion and the second wall portion are parallel to one another and connected to each other by a first side wall portion that runs perpendicular to the first and second wall portions, wherein the first wall portion extends from the first side wall portion in a first direction and the second wall portion extends from the first side wall portion in a second direction, and wherein the first direction is opposite the second direction, and
- wherein the third wall portion and the fourth wall portion are parallel to one another and connected to each other by a second side wall portion that runs perpendicular to the third and fourth wall portions.
A connector comprising:
- an insulator including:
- a first attachment portion comprising:
- a first wall portion elongated in a first direction, and comprising a first end and a second end;
- a first side portion elongated in a second direction different from the first direction, and being in contact with the first end;
- a second side portion elongated in the second direction, and being in contact with the second end;
- and
- a first contact comprising a conductive material and attached to the first wall portion, and separated from the first wall portion;
- and
- a second attachment portion adjacent to the first attachment portion, and comprising:
- a second wall portion separated from the first wall portion;
- and
- a second contact comprising a conductive material and attached to the second wall portion, and wherein the first wall portion and the second wall portion are parallel to one another and connected to each other by a side wall portion that runs perpendicular to the first and second wall portions, wherein the first wall portion extends from the side wall portion in a first direction and the second wall portion extends from the side wall portion in a second direction, and wherein the first direction is opposite the second direction.
