ABSTRACT:
An imaging apparatus has a printed-circuit board electrically connected to a solid-state imaging device, and a composite cable electrically connected to said printed-circuit board and made by bundling up a plurality of cables including at least one of plain cables and coaxial cables. An aligner for aligning the plurality of cables contained in the composite cable in a desired form is attached to the distal part of the composite cable. The distal side of the composite cable with the aligner attached to the distal part thereof is opposed to a plane of the printed-circuit board having electrodes. The conductors of the cables of the composite cable and the electrodes on the printed-circuit board are mutually connected all at once directly or indirectly via conducting patterns exposed on the distal side of the aligner. The work of connecting the cables of the composite cable to the electrodes on the printed-circuit board becomes simpler, and a rigid section becomes shorter.
