Abstract

An adapter connector has two ends to be mated with a first mating connector and a second mating connector respectively. The adapter connector includes an insulating body and multiple terminals. The insulating body has a first mating section and a second mating section. The first mating section is concavely provided with multiple terminal slots. The second mating section is concavely provided with an insertion space communicated with the terminal slots. The first mating section is mated with the first mating connector. The insertion space accommodates the second mating connector. Each terminal has an elastic contact portion at one end thereof and a flat plate contact portion at the other end thereof. The elastic contact portion is accommodated in a corresponding terminal slot and electrically connected with the first mating connector. The flat plate contact portion is accommodated in the insertion space to be electrically connected with the second mating connector.
