A shielded cable connecting terminal includes a conductor, a cable sheath insulating the conductor, and a conductive braid wound around the cable sheath. The terminal further comprises: a terminal body having an electrically connecting portion connectable to a mating terminal at one end and a cylindrical portion connectable to the end of the shielded cable at the other end; and a conductive pipe for receiving the conductor of the shielded cable therein and fitting into the cylindrical portion. A collar is disposed on the conductive pipe into which the shielded cable is inserted and an insulating portion is formed on the edge surface of the collar. As a result, short-circuiting caused by possible contact between fraying strands of the braid of the shielded cable and the terminal is avoided. Further, the use of the inexpensive conductive pipe lowers the overall cost of the terminal.
