The electronic device including a cable connector according to various embodiments of the disclosure may include: a cable including a connector part comprising a connector connected to one end part of the cable and configured to deliver an electrical signal, and a cable coupling part comprising a coupler including an opening and an internal surface configured to have the connector part of the cable inserted therein and combined therewith, the cable coupling part being electrically connected to the connector part. The connector part may include a hook part comprising a hook configured to snap and combine the connector part with the cable coupling part by being elastically deformed based on the connector part being inserted into the cable coupling part, and a contact part comprising a contact separated from the hook part and configured to form an electrical contact with the cable coupling part by pressurizing at least a part of the internal surface of the cable coupling part by its elastic force by being elastically deformed independently of the hook part based on the connector part being combined with the cable coupling part. In various embodiments, the hook part may be extended from the connector part and bent and formed in a direction opposite to a direction in which the connector part is combined with the cable coupling part. An angle of the bending may be set so that the hook part has an overlap with the internal surface of the cable coupling part, so that the hook part may elastically pressurize the internal surface of the cable coupling part.

Proposed is a connector for high-speed signal transmission with a rigid alignment function. The connector allows rigid alignment between pin arrays as a part of the connector moves slightly in the left-right or front-rear direction depending on the degree of engagement between corresponding pins when coupled to a counterpart connector.
