When a swaging portion (71) of one shell (60) is swaged to a cable (5), even in a case where a main body (42) of the other shell (40) receives tensile force through a sandwiching portion (43) sandwiched between the swaging portion (71) and the cable (5), the risk of pulling the main body (42) of the other shell itself is reduced, and deformation and damage of the other shell (40) are prevented. A cable connector includes a housing (20) configured to hold one end of a cable (5) and a first shell (60) and a second shell (40) including main bodies covering at least a portion of the housing (20). The first shell (60) has a swaging portion (71) to be swaged to the cable (50). The second shell (40) has a sandwiching portion (43) to be swaged together with the cable by the swaging portion (71) with the sandwiching portion being sandwiched between the swaging portion (71) and the cable. The sandwiching portion (43) and the main body (42) of the second shell are connected to each other through an extendable extra length portion (47) at least in an axial direction.
