A USB (Universal Serial Bus) connector capable of dual-side insertion includes a USB socket and a USB plug. The USB socket includes a socket housing (1), a group of conductive pins provided in the socket housing, and joint plates (4) supporting the group of conductive pins. The group of conductive pins include a first set of conductive pins (2) and a second set of conductive pins (3). The joint plates (4) include an upper joint plate (4.1) and a lower joint plate (4.2). The opposite sides of the upper and lower joint plates are provided with grooves respectively, the number of grooves being equal to the number of conductive pins in the corresponding set of conductive pins. The first and second sets of conductive pins are embedded in the grooves of upper and lower joint plates with the mirrorimage of the first and second sets of conductive pins staggered along the central axis of the socket housing. The socket housing is further provided with a misplug-proof mechanism (1.1,1.2). The USB connector can transmit two USB signals simultaneously, and the space occupied on the device can be decreased.
