Abstract
In a connector for use in connecting a cable (11) such as a coaxial cable, a contact element (12) is held by an insulator (13) and is connected to the cable. A conductive shell (14) covers the insulator. The conductive shell has a holding portion (17) for clamping and holding the cable in cooperation with the insulator. It is preferable that the shell has a first shell component (15) arranged at a position corresponding to a contacting portion of the contact element and fixedly held by the insulator and a second shell component (16) having the holding portion and removably held by the insulator.
