ABSTRACT:
A flanged connector (20) has an insulating housing (21), a plurality of contacts (22) separated one from another within the housing, a metal shell (23) covering the housing so as to shield the contacts, and at least one flange (28) bent at and outwardly extending from at least one of edges of a front opening (24) formed in the metal shell. A female-threaded bore (30) is formed in each flange (28), which continues from a folded-back portion (27). This portion is formed by bending outwards and further bending rearwards an extension from the at least one edge so that the flange is or the flanges are retracted from the edges a predetermined distance. A pair of the flanges (28) may extend along the opposite side edges of the opening (24), or alternatively the single flange (28) may extend along an upper one of those edges. The flanged connector (20), which will be fixed by one or more set-screws (9) to a panel (10) of an electric or electronic apparatus's body, has thus those flanges (28) made as small as possible to reduce a space necessary for the connector to be surface-mounted.
