Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Outer-conductor-exposed portions are positioned in respective second body portions of a cable holder, and solder is supplied into solder pools provided in the respective second body portions, whereby outer conductors and ground contacts are connected to each other. Hence, even if the solder is in a molten state, a heated soldering bit does not touch the outer conductors. Therefore, the occurrence of any deformation or melting of insulators is suppressed. Furthermore, since there is no need to caulk any shield connection terminals in such a manner as to conform to the shapes of the outer conductors as in the known art, there is no chance of the insulators undergoing elastic deformation. Hence, the insulators are protected from any factors for thermal deformation and elastic deformation, and electric characteristics of differential signal transmission cables for individual finished products are thus stabilized. Consequently, the reliability of the cable assembly is improved.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A cable assembly comprising: a differential signal transmission cable including a pair of signal conductors, an insulator provided around the signal conductors, and an outer conductor provided around the insulator; a signal-conductor-exposed portion in which portions of the signal conductors are exposed to an outside; an outer-conductor-exposed portion in which a portion of the outer conductor is exposed to the outside, the outer-conductor-exposed…
