Connector and a method of assembling it

摘要

A connector housing (10) has a wide cavity group (11L) and a narrow cavity group (11S). A front holder (30) is mounted to the front of the housing (10), but corresponds only to the narrow cavity group (11S). Thus, the front holder (30) has a small area as compared to a front holder corresponding to all the cavities. Accordingly, a degree of shrinkage of the front holder (30) during resin molding is suppressed, thereby making a dimensional variation of the front holder (30) smaller. As a result, displacements between the smaller cavities (12S) and the portions of the front holder (30) corresponding to the smaller cavities (12S) are suppressed.
