Patent attributes
A shield terminal (12) includes inner conductors (14) having tabs (16) projecting forward from bodies (15), a dielectric (21) formed with conductor accommodation chambers (36) inside and configured to hold the inner conductors (14) with the bodies (15) accommodated in the conductor accommodation chambers (36), an outer conductor (37) for surrounding the dielectric (21) and the tabs (16), and walls (23, 31 and 32) constituting the conductor accommodation chambers (36) and formed with air chambers (43 to 50). Focusing on the fact that air has a lower dielectric constant than synthetic resin, the air chambers (43 to 50) are formed in the walls (23, 31 and 32) constituting the conductor accommodation chambers (36). This enables an impedance to be enhanced even if the dielectric (21) is made of a material having high rigidity.
