PURPOSE: A connector is provided to be capable of maintaining contact reliability even if the arrangement pitch of contacts is reduced. CONSTITUTION: A contact arranging portion(31) is substantially plate-shaped. The contact arranging portion extends in a contact arrangement direction(A) which is orthogonal to a fitting direction of a housing(30). First contact portions of first contacts and extension portions of the second contacts are arranged on the upper surface of the contact arranging portion in an alternating manner at predetermined space intervals along the contact arrangement direction. Linkage portions of the first contacts and second contact portions of the second contacts are arranged on the lower surface of the contact arranging portion in an alternating manner at predetermined space intervals along the contact arrangement direction. The cable holding portion is continuous with the contact arranging portion 31, and extends in the contact arrangement direction. The cable holding portion is formed with a plurality of cable holding grooves 32a at predetermined space intervals along the contact arrangement direction. The first contacts respectively include the first contact portion, a first bending portion(52), a first connecting portion, and the linkage portion. Each first contact is formed by blanking and bending a metal plate, similarly to each of the second contacts and a base shell.
