Abstract: A cable is provided with a cable core including one or more electric wires, a shield layer provided to cover around the cable core and composed of a laterally wound shield formed by winding metal wire strands helically, and a sheath provided to cover around the shield layer. The metal wire strands are semi-hard copper alloy wires, and P/PD, which is the ratio of the winding pitch P in the laterally wound shield to the pitch diameter PD of the shield layer, is less than 9.9.

Abstract: A coaxial cable is composed of a conductor, an insulator around the conductor, a shield layer around the insulator, and a sheath around the shield layer. The shield layer includes a lateral winding shielding portion with metal wires helically wrapped around the insulator, and a batch plating portion covering the lateral winding shielding portion. The shield layer includes a joining portion where adjacent metal wires are joined with each other with the batch plating portion at a gap between the adjacent metal wires, and inner peripheral portions where the metal wires are not being covered with the batch plating portion and plating layers are exposed. The joining portion is provided between adjacent inner peripheral portions. When an elemental analysis is performed in any analysis region having an area of 0.015 mm2 or more and 0.

Abstract: A signal transmission cable includes a conductor, an insulator covering a periphery of the conductor, and a shield layer covering a periphery of the insulator. The shield layer includes a lateral winding shield portion composed of a plurality of metal wires being helically wrapped around the periphery of the insulator to cover the periphery of the insulator, and a batch plating portion composed of a hot dip plating, which is covering a periphery of the lateral winding shield portion. Where a diameter of the metal wire is d and a thickness of the batch plating portion from an outer surface of the metal wire is t, a formula t<0.5d is met over an entire cable circumference. When the signal transmission cable is bent in a U-shape within a range of a bending strain of 35% or less, no cracks occur in the batch plating portion.
