1. A connector device, comprising:
a first connector;
a second connector provided to face the first connector;
an adapter for connecting the first and second connectors;
a resilient holding portion formed in the first connector, the resilient holding portion having a shape retention force capable of holding the adapter in a fixed posture with respect to the first connector, the resilient holding portion being resiliently deformable; and
a guide portion for absorbing position shifts of the first and second connectors by inclining the adapter with respect to the first connector while resiliently deforming the resilient holding portion,
wherein an accommodation recess for accommodating the resilient holding portion is formed in an outer periphery of a movable dielectric constituting the adapter.
