A connector includes: a terminal fitting; an electric wire connected to the terminal fitting; a housing in which the terminal fitting is stored, the housing constituting a fitting part with a counterpart connector; a shield shell disposed so as to surround an outer periphery of the housing; and a seal member made of rubber and sandwiched between the housing and the shield shell. The seal member has a rubber hardness of 30 degrees or more and 50 degrees or less. A value obtained by dividing a compressed height, which is a difference between a first height of the seal member before being sandwiched between the housing and the shield shell and a second height of the seal member when being sandwiched between the housing and the shield shell, by the first height is 0.1 or more and 0.4 or less.

A connector includes: a terminal fitting; an electric wire connected to the terminal fitting; a housing in which the terminal fitting is stored; a shield shell disposed so as to surround an outer periphery of the housing; and a waterproof cover having a tubular shape and made of an elastic material, the waterproof cover being provided so as to surround an outer periphery of the shield shell and configured to be in close contact with the outer periphery of the shield shell. The shield shell is brought into close contact with a close-contact portion of the waterproof cover. The waterproof cover includes at least one protruding strip portion provided at the close-contact portion, the at least one protruding strip portion protruding from a tubular inner surface of the waterproof cover and extending in a peripheral direction.

An electrical connector includes an insulating housing, at least one flexible printed circuit board mounted in the insulating housing, at least one location block disposed to a middle of an outer surface of the at least one flexible printed circuit board, at least one elastic structure disposed on an outer surface of the at least one location block, and a shell.

A modular connector system with components that can be economically assembled to provide high signal integrity in a harsh environment, such as an automobile. In some connectors, electrical conductors serving as signal conductors may be at least partially encircled by a conductive sheet formed into a tube. The tube may be formed by joining opposite edges of the sheet with tab portions extending from the edges. The tab portions may be bent to extend radially outwards from the cavity and crimped together, providing mechanical integrity to the shield, as well as a tab that polarizes the shield to block incorrect insertion into an insulative housing and can engage with components in the insulative housing to latch the shield in the housing. Other disclosed techniques economically and stably position electrical conductors, which may serve as signal terminals relative to ground structures, electrically and mechanically connect shields, or compensate for impedance variations.
