Abstract: The present invention concerns a cable for signal transmission and a method for producing such a cable. The cable comprises one or more wire pairs extending in a longitudinal direction, each of said wire pairs including two conductors each separately surrounded by a dielectric layer. At least one of said one or more wire pairs comprises a conductive shield being wrapped in a rotational direction along and about the longitudinal axis of the wire pair such that a longitudinal side of a wrap overlaps a preceding wrap. The conductive shield is applied with an angle (?) that differs between different wraps such that the conductive shield lay length (L) varies along the length of said cable.
