A connector and an information processing apparatus are provided to take countermeasures against both external noise and radiation noise, and an information processing apparatus having such a connector, in which both the external noise and radiation noise are suppressed. A personal computer(10) includes a lid(11) and a main body(12). The lid can open and close with respect to the main body. A display is provided on an inner side of the lid. A CPU(Central Processing Unit) which carries out computation processing are incorporated in the main body. Multiple openings(13a) are formed in a casing(13) on the side of the back face of the main body. A LAN connector(110), an S-OUT connector(120) and a USB connector(130) are provided at the openings. Each of the LAN connector, the S-OUT connector and the USB connector is an embodiment of the connector of the invention, and shield cables are inserted from the openings to be connected. The LAN connector includes a box-like plastic main body, plural signal terminals provided on an inner wall of the main body, and a metal member passing from an outer face to the inner wall of the main body. Since the opening of the box-like main body is small, a user's finger does not reach the inner wall of the main body. The signal terminals are connected through a bus to the CPU incorporated in the main body of the personal computer. An inner side of the main body of the metal member which passes through the main body is a shield terminal which is connected to the shield of the shield cable. An outer side of the main body of the metal member is connected through a fixing terminal to a ground of the personal computer.
