<p>Provided are a connector which permits the resistance against the deformation of a shield to be increased and a method of manufacturing the connector. The shield (30) is made up of an inner shield member (31) disposed on the inner surface side of the shield (30)and an outer shield member (32) disposed on the outer surface side and, therefore, the strength of the shield (30) can be increased by the double structure of the shield members (31, 32). As a result of this, the shield (30) is not deformed easily even in the case where an excessive external force is applied to the shield (30) in the vertical direction or in the horizontal direction, for example, in inserting and extracting a mating connector into and out of the shield (30). Furthermore, because the inner shield member (31) and outer shield member (32) of the shield (30) are integrally formed from a bent metal plate, easy manufacture is possible as an integral part without an increase in the number of parts.</p> |
