An electrical connector to be connected to a cable includes a first housing having a casing with a substantially rectangular shape and a fitting section protruding from the casing in a direction that the electrical connector is fitted to a mate connector; a first shell covering the casing; and a first terminal arranged in the fitting section. The first terminal has contact sections at upper and lower sides of one end thereof for contacting with a terminal of the mate connector, and a connecting section at the other end thereof for connecting with a core wire of the cable. It is arranged such that a distance from the contact section at the upper side to the connecting section is substantially same as a distance from the contact section at the lower side to the connecting section.
