To provide a connector equipped with an ejector lever having a structure that a locking mechanism is hard to be released by external force, the ejector lever is hard to be damaged, and an ejector function is hard to be impaired.

For the connector equipped with an ejector lever, a protector 20 for inhibiting pivotal movement on an external side is inserted into the ejector lever from the side an ejector lever projection 10 from which an ejector lever is exposed, whereby a pair of holding portions 22 in the protector 20 covers an external surface of a connector base 4, and a claw portion 26 provided so as to hold the ejector lever projection 10 at leading ends of a pair of engaging portions 24 is installed in a state caught by a stepped portion of a fellow connector 7 to inhibit the pivotal movement of the ejector lever even when external force is applied to the ejector lever projection 10 in an X direction.
