1. An electrical connector comprising:
a first signal contact member that is connected to a center conductor of a first coaxial cable, and that is connected to a first signal contact portion of a mating connector mounted on a circuit board;
a second signal contact member that is connected to a center conductor of a second coaxial cable, and that is connected to a second signal contact portion of the mating connector;
a ground contact member to which a ground potential is applied, the ground contact member comprising:
an annular fitting portion that is fitted and connected to a ground contact portion of the mating connector; and
a shell portion that bendably extends from the annular fitting portion to be connected to outer conductors of the first coaxial cable and of the second coaxial cable; and
a conductive member comprising:
a first ground connection portion that is connected to the ground contact member; and
a second ground connection portion that is connected to the ground contact portion of the mating connector,
wherein when viewed from a direction of fitting to the mating connector, the second ground connection portion of the conductive member overlaps at least a part of a first signal line, and the first signal line comprises the center conductor of the first coaxial cable and the first signal contact member, and
wherein when viewed from the direction of fitting to the mating connector, the second ground connection portion of the conductive member overlaps at least a part of a second signal line, and the second signal line comprises the center conductor of the second coaxial cable and the second signal contact member.
