Abstract: A flat cable which is excellent in resistance to sliding and bending. A flat cable includes a plurality of conductors which are arranged in parallel apart from each other, and an insulation having a flexural modulus of no less than 200 MPa and less than 800 MPa, with which the conductors are extrusion-coated. It is preferable that the flexural modulus of the insulation is no less than 250 MPa and no more than 450 MPa. In addition, it is preferable that the insulation contains one or more than one kind of high polymer.

Abstract: There is provided a twisted-pair cable having a good anti-voice leak quality and handling facility, and a method of making the twisted-pair cable. Thus, the end-conditioning process of such a cable is rendered easier, and the cable can be produced at a lower cost. The twisted-pair cable includes a pair of twisted-pair core wires respectively including a pair of insulated core wires, each of which has an electrical conductor and an insulator layer coated thereon. The twisted-pair cable further includes a core cable assembly formed by twisting a pair of unitary core wire complexes, each of which is formed by twisting the pair of twisted-pair core wires.
