An electrical-connector-equipped flat cable comprising:

• a first flat cable including a first signal line and a first ground line, the first signal line being a conductor, the first ground line being a conductor;
• a first ferrule surrounding and holding a first front end region of the first flat cable;
• a second flat cable including a second signal line and a second ground line, the second signal line being a conductor, the second ground line being a conductor;
• a second ferrule surrounding and holding a second front end region of the second flat cable;
• and
• a shell disposed so as to surround the first ferrule and the second ferrule, the shell being made of metal, wherein
• the shell includes a frame body and a plate, the frame body being disposed outside the first ferrule and the second ferrule, the plate being disposed between the first ferrule and the second ferrule and electrically connected to the frame body, and
• the plate includes a main body portion and a coupling portion, the main body portion being located between the first signal line and the second signal line, the coupling portion being electrically connected to each of the main body portion, the first ground line, and the second ground line.
