A connector is mateable with a mating connector along a predetermined direction. The connector comprises a mated-state detection member and a holding mechanism which includes a reference surface, insulating portions and an insulating external wall. Each of the insulating portions projects from the reference surface by a first predetermined length in the predetermined direction. The insulating external wall projects beyond the reference surface in the predetermined direction and surrounds the insulating portions in a plane perpendicular to the predetermined direction. The mated-state detection member is held by the holding mechanism and is movable between a projecting position and a receding position in the predetermined direction. The mated-state detection member at the projecting position projects from the reference surface by a second predetermined length which is shorter than the first predetermined length. The mated-state detection member is moved to the receding position by the mating connector mated with the connector.
