A helically wound insulated twinax cable reduces cable dielectric loss by increasing the percentage of air in the dielectric filler surrounding the signal conductors. The helical insulator wire winding further provides mechanical support and reduces the risk of creating an electrical short-circuit. This will improve differential signaling capability of the two-conductor cable and enable longer cable range.
