A connector is mountable on a circuit board and matable with a mating connector inserted from a front end of the connector toward a rear end of the connector. The connector has a plurality of contacts, a holder for holding the plurality of contacts so that the plurality of contacts is arranged in a lateral direction, and a shell for covering at least part of the holder. The shell has a lower plate facing the circuit board when the connector is mounted on the circuit board. The lower plate includes a front edge, an inner back edge located away from the front edge by a predetermined distance, inner side edges connecting the inner back edge to the front edge, and a ground portion projecting frontward from the inner back edge. The inner back edge and the inner side edges define a recessed area recessed rearward from the front edge by a predetermined distance. The ground portion is connectable to the circuit board.
