ABSTRACT:
A movable connector with excellent shielding performance and transmission characteristics is provided. A second housing (2) is floatably attached via electrical contacts (20) to a first housing (50) that is mounted on a circuit board. Shields (80) are attached around an outer periphery of the second housing (2), and protrusions (24e) provided on specific contacts (20) are connected to the shields (80), thereby resulting in grounding connections.
