Abstract
An electrical connector includes: terminal pairs to which wire pairs are attached; a terminal holding part made of insulating material and holding the terminal pairs; an outer shell made of electric conductive material and accommodating the terminal holding part and end portions of the wire pairs; a fitting part fitted to a counter connector; and a shield member disposed in the outer shell and made of electric conductive material. The shield member includes wire separation walls twisted around the axial center of the shield member. The wire separation walls separate the wire pairs for each wire pair, and two insulated wires of each wire pair are curved in the same direction as each other.
Claims6
An electrical connector used for a cable including a plurality of wire pairs each including a pair of insulated wires, the electrical connector comprising:
- a plurality of terminal pairs each including a pair of terminals and to which the wire pairs are attached;
- a terminal holding part made of insulating material and holding the terminal pairs;
- an outer shell made of electric conductive material and formed into a cylindrical shape, wherein the terminal holding part holding the terminal pairs is disposed on one side in an axial direction in the outer shell and the wire pairs attached to the terminal pairs are disposed on another side in the axial direction in the outer shell;
- a fitting part disposed on said one side in the axial direction in the outer shell to be fitted to a counter connector;
- and
- a shield member disposed in the outer shell and made of electric conductive material, wherein the shield member separates the wire pairs for each wire pair in the outer shell, and forms extending shape of each of the wire pairs such that one insulated wire and another insulated wire in each of the wire pairs are curved in a same direction as each other.
