  • Patent number: 5521331
    Abstract: A shielded electric cable having a core including an insulated conductor. A first shielding member formed of an elongated ribbon of insulating material and a pair of elongated metal foil strips arranged in a parallel relationship with the ribbon and bonded to the opposite sides of the ribbon is applied longitudinally to the core and wrapped circumferentially therearound forming two concentric substantially closed shielded layers. A layer of plastic material, preferably foamed, surrounds the first shielding member and a second shielding member surrounds the plastic layer, the second shielding member being formed of non-braided metallic material. The layer of plastic material is bonded to the shielding members. The shielded electric cable is provided with an outer jacket of non-conducting material and having an appropriate O.D. for receiving a standard connector.

A first shielding member formed of an elongated ribbon of insulating material and a pair of elongated metal foil strips arranged in a parallel relationship with the ribbon and bonded to the opposite sides of the ribbon is applied longitudinally to the core and wrapped circumferentially therearound forming two concentric substantially closed shielded layers. A layer of foam material surrounds the first shielding member and a second shielding member surrounds the foam layer, the second shielding member being formed of non-braided metallic material. The shielded electric cable is provided with an outer jacket of non-conducting material and having an appropriate O.D. for receiving a standard connector.
