Abstract: A connector comprises a connector housing provided with a plug inserting opening which accepts the insertion of a plug at the front surface of the connector housing and a slit which accepts the insertion of a printed circuit board at the rear surface of the connector housing. The connector further comprises an electrically conductive member which is secured to the connector housing. The electrically conductive member comprises a first contact part and a second contact part, and the first contact part projects within the plug insertion space to achieve contact with the plug while the second contact part is provided at the slit to achieve contact with the contacts. The printed circuit board is fit into the slit which is provided to the rear surface of said connector housing.
