A number of the terminal rows RT1 to RT3 are minimized, as compared to a number of the connect rows RC1 to RC4. In the terminal row RT1, the terminal portions 304 of the signal contact pair C22, C23 are arranged between the terminal portions 304 of the signal contact pair C11, C12 and the terminal portions 304 of the signal contact pair C14, C15. In the terminal row RT3, the terminal portions 304 of the signal contact pair C42, C43 are arranged between the terminal portions 304 of the signal contact pair C31, C32 and the terminal portions 304 of the signal contact pair C34, C35. Thus, a size of the footprint of the connector 100 can be reduced, and cross talks between the signal contact pair C11, C12 and the signal contact pair C14, C15 and between the signal contact pair C31, C32 and the signal contact pair C34, C35 can be reduced.
