A connector C includes an elongated body 100; a plurality of contacts 200 arranged along a length of the body 100; a cable assembly K to be connected to the contacts 200; and a shield member 300 for shielding the body 100. The shield member 300 has a first shield portion 310 embedded in an upper end portion of a rear end portion 112 of a thick portion 110 of the body 100; a second shield portion 320 embedded in lower ends of the thick portion 110 and a thin portion 120 of the body 100; a third shield portion 330 having a substantially lateral U-shape in cross section and connecting between a base end of the first shield portion 310 and a base end of the second shield portion 320; and a fourth shield portion 340 which continues to a distal end of the first shield portion 310 and which is embedded in a distal end portion 111 of the thick portion 110. The connector has good shield characteristics and a slimmed-down body.
