Abstract: A connector is mountable on a circuit board and mateable with a mating connector along a front-rear direction. The connector comprises a ground member, a holding member, a plurality of contacts and a midplate. The ground member has an upper plate portion, a lower plate portion, a coupling portion, a fixed leg and an extending portion. Each of the upper plate portion and the lower plate portion extends in a predetermined plane intersecting with an up-down direction. The fixed leg is configured to be fixed to the circuit board. The fixed leg extends downward in the up-down direction from the extending portion. The extending portion connects the fixed leg and the lower plate portion with each other. The extending portion extends in the predetermined plane from the lower plate portion. The plurality of contacts are arranged in two contact rows.
