A board mountable connector has a pair of mounting portions to be mounted on a board. A mounting aperture is formed in each mounting portion, and a keying protrusion is formed on one of the pair and aligned with the mounting aperture. A pair of openings, corresponding to the mounting apertures in the mounting portions of the connector, are provided in the board. A slot that receives the keying protrusion is aligned with one of the openings. This slot is formed thin, to correspond to the keying protrusion of the mounting portion. The mounting portion serves as a securing means by a bolt as well as a keying means to prevent erroneous mounting. Connector retention is therefore improved while minimizing the area required on the board.
