Communication cable (1C), comprising: at least one
signal line (10) comprising a pair of side-by-side insulated wires (11), each insulated wire (11) comprising a conductor (12) and an insulating sheath (13) enclosing the conductor (12); a shielding body (30) that encloses the at least one
signal line (10); a casing (40) that encloses the shielding body (30) and has an outer shape with an approximately circular cross-section; and a high tensile strength
fiber (50), where, if a direction along which the pair of insulated wires (11) is arranged side by side is defined as the lateral direction (a) and a direction which intersects the lateral direction is defined as the vertical direction (b), the high-tensile
fiber (50) is arranged in the lateral direction (a) outside the at least one
signal line (10) and runs along an axial direction of the at least one signal line (10), and the high tensile strength
fiber (50) acts as a bending restriction element which restricts bending of the at least one signal line (10) in the lateral direction (a) compared to bending of the at least one signal line (10) in the vertical direction (b).
