Signal cable, cable connector and signal cable connecting apparatus including the same

A cable connector, comprising:

• a connector body;
• a connector terminal, received by the connector body, to make electrical contact with a cable terminal of a signal cable;
• a cable holder, formed in the connector body, to releasably engage with a cable locking portion of the signal cable,
• wherein the cable holder includes an inclined surface, which inclines upwardly along an insertion direction of the signal cable into the connector body;
• and
• a cable guiding portion, formed in the connector body, which includes an inclined surface, which inclines downwardly along the insertion direction of the signal cable into the connector body, to guide the cable terminal toward the connector terminal,
• wherein, when a signal cable is inserted into the connector terminal, the inclined surface of the cable holder and the inclined surface of the cable guiding portion face opposite surfaces of an insertion end of the signal cable.

A signal cable connecting apparatus, comprising:

• a signal cable comprising
• a plurality of signal lines,
• a cable film which sheaths the plurality of signal lines,
• a grip unit fixed to one planar side of the cable film, and
• a cable locking portion formed in the cable film;
• and
• a cable connector comprising
• a connector body,
• a connector terminal, received by the connector body, to make electrical contact with the plurality of signal lines, and
• a cable holder, formed in the connector body,
• wherein the cable locking portion and cable holder engage with each other if the signal cable is inserted into the connector body in a connecting direction.
