A filter element includes a coil part formed in an overall tube-like shape by layering a signal transmitting belt-like conductor and a grounding belt-like conductor with a belt-like insulator in between and winding so that the grounding belt-like conductor is outside the signal transmitting belt-like conductor, a magnetic body being attached to a center of the coil part; an input terminal that is connected to an outermost circumferential part of the signal transmitting belt-like conductor and is led from an outer circumferential position of the coil part; an output terminal that is connected to an innermost circumferential part of the signal transmitting belt-like conductor and is led from a central position of the coil part located on an opposite side to a leading position of the input terminal with the magnetic body in between; and a grounding terminal that is connected to an outermost circumferential part of the grounding belt-like conductor and is led from an outer circumferential position of the coil part located on an opposite side to a leading position of the input terminal with a leading position of the output terminal in between. In this way, a filter element with superior attenuation characteristics is realized.
