| 1. A connector comprising:
a plurality of contacts; and
an insulator having a plurality of through-holes for receiving the plurality of contacts,
wherein each of the plurality of contacts comprises a resilient member and has rolled surfaces as contact surfaces, and two
contacts of the plurality of contacts are disposed in each of the plurality of through-holes in such a manner that the contact
surfaces of one of said two contacts face the respective contact surfaces of the other one of said two contacts in a direction
perpendicular to a pitch array of the contacts that extends in a direction of a length of a connector and also extends in
a direction substantially perpendicular to the plane of the contacts.
