A connector-equipped multicore cable includes a connector including a first end portion and a second end portion and a multicore cable including a plurality of coaxial electrical wires and connected to the first end portion. The connector includes, at the second end portion, a cover that is made of a metal and that covers a connector terminal. The plurality of coaxial electrical wires each include a first shield layer. The first shield layer and the cover are electrically connected to each other.

Connector-equipped multicore cable

A connector attached multi-conductor cable includes a multi-conductor cable and a connector that includes a circuit board including first to third surfaces. The circuit board includes first pads provided on the first surface and connected to central conductors of wires; second pads provided on the first surface, arranged in a first direction parallel to the third surface, and connected to the first pads; a first ground layer provided between the first and second surfaces, and extending in a second direction parallel to the first surface and perpendicular to the first direction; and a conductive member provided apart from the first pads in the second direction with respect to the second pads, and connected to the first ground layer. The conductive member is positioned on the first surface side with respect to the first ground layer in a third direction perpendicular to the first surface.

Connector attached multi-conductor cable

A connector-cable module includes a multicore cable including first, second, and third signal lines; and a connector connected to one end of the multicore cable and including a board and first, second, and third pads connected to the first, second, and third signal lines and provided on the board. A first signal and a second signal transmitted through the first and second signal lines form a differential signal. The connector is configured such that when a line passes through a first gravity center of the first pad and a second gravity center of the second pad, a foot of a perpendicular drawn from a third gravity center of the third pad to the line is located between the first gravity center and the second gravity center.
