The present invention relates to a manipulator having distributed mechanism for maximizing the performance of the manipulator. The manipulator is comprised of a first link; a second link; a joint for rotatably joining the first link and the second link each other; a connector having a first movable node at one end and a second movable node at the other end; a driver for providing power to linearly move the first movable node and the second movable node; and a guide for guiding the first movable node and the second movable node linearly. The first movable node is connected to the first link and is capable of linearly moving and rotating with respect to the first link. The second movable node is connected to the second link and is capable of linearly moving and rotating with respect to the second link.
