ABSTRACT:
A cable connector which enables high-density mounting while reducing the risk of the locking arm being damaged or deformed is disclosed. The cable connector (1) comprises housings (10and30) that support a cable (C) and that have a locking arm (14) to be locked with a mating connector (50). A pull-tab (40) is connected to the locking arm (14). The pull-tab (40) is inserted into holes (18and19) that are respectively formed in the upper section (12) of the housings (10and30) and in the upper section (17) of the locking arm (14). When the pull-tab (40) is pulled in direction approximately opposite from the mating direction (i.e., in the direction of arrow A), the pull-tab (40) causes an approaching motion between the upper section (12) of the housings (10) and (30) and the section (17) of the locking arm (14), thus releasing the locking arm (14) from the mating connector (50).
