A shielded electrical cable includes a conductor set and two generally parallel shielding films disposed around the conductor set. The conductor set includes one or more substantially parallel longitudinal insulated conductors. The shielding films include a parallel portion wherein the shielding films are substantially parallel. The parallel portion is configured to electrically isolate the conductor set.

A shielded electrical ribbon cable includes adjacent first and second longitudinal conductor sets where each conductor set includes two or more insulated conductors. The first conductor set also includes a ground conductor that generally lies in the plane of the insulated conductors of the first conductor set. At least 90% of the periphery of each conductor set is encompassed by a shielding film. First and second non-conductive polymeric films are disposed on opposite sides of the cable and form cover portions substantially surrounding each conductor set, and pinched portions on each side of each conductor set. When the cable is laid flat, the distance between the center of the ground conductor of the first conductor set and the center of the nearest insulated conductor of the second conductor set is 1, the center-to-center spacing of the insulated conductors of the second conductor set is 2, and 1/2 is greater than 0.7.

A shielded electrical cable includes one or more conductor sets extending along a length of the cable and being spaced apart from each other along a width of the cable. Each conductor set has one or more conductors having a size no greater than 24 AWG and each conductor set has an insertion loss of less than about 20 dB/meter over a frequency range of 0 to 20 GHz. First and second shielding films are disposed on opposite sides of the cable, the first and second films including cover portions and pinched portions arranged such that, in transverse cross section, the cover portions of the first and second films in combination substantially surround each conductor set, and the pinched portions of the first and second films in combination form pinched portions of the cable on each side of each conductor.

A flexible flat cable for transmitting high-frequency signals includes an inner flat cable and a pair of shielding composite layers, which are divided into a main section, two connecting sections, and two sealing sections. The inner flat cable is disposed in the main section, and includes a plurality of conductors, an insulated glue layer, a pair of insulated partition layers and a pair of metallic shielding layers. The pair of insulated partition layers are disposed at two sides of the conductors and are affixed oppositely. The pair of metallic shielding layers are disposed at outer sides of the pair of insulated partition layers. Each shielding composite layer has a width larger than a width of the inner flat cable, and includes an outer shielding layer and a conductive glue layer having one part affixed to the inner flat cable and another part affixed to each other.

A dual axial cable is provided with adjacent and substantially parallel first and second wires. Each wire is formed from electrical conductor surrounded by a respective first and second electrical insulator having lengthwise drain alignment groove on outward side and having respective first and second inward sides of interlocking structure. First and second inward sides of interlocking structure of first and second electrical insulators mutually engage to prevent relative transverse displacement of first and second wires. The interlocking structure maintains the planar alignment of lengthwise drain alignment grooves and electrical conductors of first and second wires. First and second drain conductors are received respectively in lengthwise drain alignment grooves of first and second electrical insulators and run adjacent and substantially parallel to first and second electrical conductors. Drain conductors are maintained in parallel alignment to electrical conductors to provide shielding benefits.

An electrical ribbon cable includes an insulated conductor extending along a longitudinal axis of the cable. The cable also includes a shielding film that carries the insulated conductor. The shielding film has a variable thickness defining a thickened rib portion and a thinned connecting portion, these portions being electrically conductive and extending along the longitudinal axis. The insulated conductor is disposed proximate the rib portion. The insulated conductor may be one of multiple insulated conductors that are organized into multiple conductor sets including at least a first and second conductor set, each conductor set including one or more of the insulated conductors, and the rib portion may be disposed between the first and second conductor sets.

A cable connector assembly includes: a cable connector; a cable electrically connected with the cable connector; an outer shell enclosing at least a portion of the cable connector and enclosing a portion of the cable, the outer shell having an inner dimension greater than an outer dimension of the cable; and a filler filled between the outer shell and the cable.

An electrical ribbon cable includes at least one conductor set having at least two elongated conductors extending from end-to-end of the cable. Each of the conductors are encompassed along a length of the cable by respective first dielectrics. A first and second film extend from end-to-end of the cable and are disposed on opposite sides of the cable The conductors are fixably coupled to the first and second films such that a consistent spacing is maintained between the first dielectrics of the conductors of each conductor set along the length of the cable. A second dielectric disposed within the spacing between the first dielectrics of the wires of each conductor set.

An edge insulated electrical cable includes an electrical cable and an edge insulation structure applied to the electrical cable at the location. A die assembly for applying edge coating to a film is also described.

A shielded electrical ribbon cable includes adjacent first and second longitudinal conductor sets where each conductor set includes two or more insulated conductors. The first conductor set also includes a ground conductor that generally lies in the plane of the insulated conductors of the first conductor set. At least 90% of the periphery of each conductor set is encompassed by a shielding film. First and second non-conductive polymeric films are disposed on opposite sides of the cable and form cover portions substantially surrounding each conductor set, and pinched portions on each side of each conductor set. When the cable is laid flat, the distance between the center of the ground conductor of the first conductor set and the center of the nearest insulated conductor of the second conductor set is 1, the center-to-center spacing of the insulated conductors of the second conductor set is 2, and 1/2 is greater than 0.7.
