ABSTRACT:
An object of the present invention is to miniaturize a connector assembly upon providing a means for taking up a displacement between connectors. A module M is provided with guide rails (32) extending in vertical direction intersecting with a connecting direction of a male and a female connectors (10), (40), and guidable portions (27F,27R) provided on the male connector (10) are engaged with the guide rails (32) to be relatively movable along the longitudinal direction of the guide rails (32). If the connectors (10, 40) are vertically displaced or inclined, the guidable portions (27F,27R) move along the guide rails (32), whereby a displacement between the connectors (10, 40) is taken up.
