The invention discloses a cable transfer mechanism for communication engineering. The cable transfer mechanism comprises a supporting plate, a connecting main frame, rectangular pin barrels, a supporting underframe, bottom beams, a left connecting auxiliary frame, a left connecting auxiliary frame, round pin barrels and a storage and protection device. The storage and protection device is mountedon the supporting plate, bundled cables can be placed in a containing box in order in rolls, the cables are placed in batches by six arranged turnover plates and six containing spaces formed by dividing the containing box, and classification arrangement is facilitated; an arranged pushing mechanism can drive the turnover plates to be in 90-degree running fit, and the rest of turnover plates clampand fix the cables; and meanwhile, protection buffer devices are mounted on the turnover plates, trapezoidal spring sheets are in contact with the cables, meanwhile, shaking brought by the trapezoidalspring sheets is absorbed by stretching and contracting of compression springs, the cables are more stable when transported, the cables are protected better, and subsequent transporting work is facilitated.
