Abstract:
1. A connecting member-terminated multi-core coaxial cable, comprising: a multi-core coaxial cable having a plurality of coaxial cables collectively covered by a cable sheath, each of which cables being provided with an insulator, an outer conductor, and a sheath successively disposed in a coaxial arrangement around a center conductor, and the cables being exposed from the cable sheath and arranged in parallel rows at one end portion of said multi-core coaxial cable, such that at the end portion the plurality of coaxial cables are divided into at least a first row of coaxial cables that define a first plane and a second row of coaxial cables that define a second plane that is parallel to the first plane and spaced apart from the first plane; a connecting member connected to one end portion of the multi-core coaxial cable, the center conductors and the outer conductors of the plurality of coaxial cables being conductively connected to respective terminal portions of the connecting member such that the second row of coaxial cables are disposed between the connecting member and the first row of coaxial cables with the first row of coaxial cables overlapping the second row of coaxial cables; and a covering member covering a periphery of the plurality of coaxial cables between the cable sheath and the connecting member, the covering member being arranged such that the distance from the end portion at the connecting member side of the covering member to the edge of the connecting member is less than 5% of the length of the connecting member.
