Abstract
A receptacle connector includes a ground contact including a cylindrical fitting portion and a grounding connection portion connected to a substrate, a signal contact disposed in a manner of being surrounded by the fitting portion, a housing holding the ground contact and the signal contact in an insulated state, and a fixing portion fixing the housing to the ground contact. The signal contact has a central conductor and a signal connection portion extending in a manner of being drawn out from the central conductor and connected to a signal terminal portion. The fixing portion extends from the housing in a direction intersecting an extending direction of the signal connection portion and fixes the housing to the ground contact by being interlocked with the grounding connection portion outside the fitting portion.

An electrical connector mounted on a substrate, the electrical connector comprising:
- a first contact comprising:
- a cylindrical fitting portion fitted into a ground contact of a counterpart connector;
- and a grounding connection portion connected to the substrate;
- a second contact surrounded by the fitting portion and electrically connected to a signal contact of the counterpart connector and comprising:
- a central conductor coming into contact with the signal contact of the counterpart connector;
- and a signal connection portion extending in a first direction along the substrate from the central conductor and connected to a terminal portion of the substrate;
- a housing holding the first contact and the second contact in an insulated state;
- and
- a fixing portion fixing the housing to the first contact,
- wherein the fixing portion extends from the housing in a second direction intersecting the first direction and fixes the housing to the first contact by being interlocked with the grounding connection portion outside the fitting portion.
