Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A differential signal cable includes a pair of signal line conductors for transmitting differential signals, an insulation collectively covering the pair of signal line conductors, a shielding tape wrapped around the insulation, and an insulating tape wound around the shielding tape. A gap is formed between an outer peripheral surface of the insulation and an inner surface of the shielding tape such that the insulation is movable relative to the shielding tape.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A differential signal cable, comprising: a pair of signal line conductors for transmitting differential signals; an insulation collectively covering the pair of signal line conductors; a shielding tape wrapped around the insulation; and an insulating tape wound around the shielding tape, wherein a gap is formed between an outer peripheral surface of the insulation and an inner surface of the shielding tape such that the insulation is movable relative to the shielding tape. 2 . The differential signal cable according to claim 1 , wherein the shielding tape is wrapped longitudinally parallel to an extending direction of the insulation. 3 . The differential signal cable according to claim 1 , wherein the insulation comprises in a cross-section thereof orthogonal to the extending direction an ellipse shape that has a major axis in an alignment direction of the pair of signal line conductors, and wherein the gap is formed between an end portion along the major axis of the insulation and the shielding tape. 4 . The differential signal cable according to claim 3 , wherein the sum of width of the gap formed at both ends of the major axis between the end portion and the shielding tape is 10 to 20 μm. 5 . A multi-core differential signal transmission cable, comprising a plurality of ones of the differential signal transmission cable according to claim 1 that are collectively shielded.
