Coaxial cable and cable assembly

A coaxial cable, comprising:

• a conductor;
• an insulator covering a periphery of the conductor;
• a shield layer covering a periphery of the insulator;
• and
• wherein the shield layer includes a lateral winding shielding portion comprising a plurality of metal wires being helically wrapped around the periphery of the insulator to cover the periphery of the insulator, and a batch plating portion comprising a hot dip plating, which is covering a periphery of the lateral winding shielding portion,
• wherein the shield layer includes a spaced portion where adjacent metal wires from among the plurality of metal wires, in a circumferential direction are spaced apart from each other, and a joining portion where the adjacent metal wires are joined to each other and a non-joining portion where the adjacent metal wires in the circumferential direction are not joined with each other with the batch plating portion at a part in a cable longitudinal direction of the spaced portion,
• wherein a length of the non-joining portion along the cable longitudinal direction is shorter than a winding pitch of the lateral winding shielding portion, and
• wherein the non-joining portion comprises a through hole penetrating through the batch plating portion in a radial direction,
• wherein a plating layer is disposed on a periphery of each of the plurality of metal wires,
• wherein the plating layer remains on a part of the plurality of metal wires being not brought into contact with the batch plating portion, and
• wherein a length of the non-joining portion along a longitudinal direction of the plurality of metal wires is shorter than a length of the joining portion along the longitudinal direction of the plurality of metal wires.
