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 composite cable is composed of a power supply wire, which includes a twisted wire pair aggregate, which are being formed by laying a plurality of twisted wire pairs together, a plurality of coaxial wires, and a plurality of signal wires, which are each smaller in outer diameter than the power supply wire and the plurality of coaxial wires. The plurality of coaxial wires and the plurality of signal wires are being laid helically over an outer periphery of the power supply wire, and each of the plurality of coaxial wires is being arranged in contact with an outer periphery of the power supply wire, and is being arranged at equally spaced intervals in a circumferential direction of the power supply wire, while each of the plurality of signal wires is being arranged in such a manner as to remain separate from the power supply wire.

A ribbon cable with a plurality of spaced apart substantially parallel insulated conductors. The parallel insulated conductors extend along a length of the cable and arranged along a width of the cable. Each insulated conductor has a central conductor surrounded by a structured insulative material formed directly onto the central conductor along substantially the entire length of the cable. The structured insulative material has a plurality of ridges extending from the central conductor along different azimuthal directions. Each pair of adjacent ridges define an angle there between greater than about 10 degrees.

A differential transmission cable module used for transmitting a differential signal between electronic devices. The module includes a cable including one inner conductor, a dielectric covering the inner conductor, and an outer conductor covering the dielectric, a sending-end substrate provided at one end of the cable, and a receiving-end substrate provided at an other end of the cable. The sending-end substrate includes two sending-end signal conductors, a sending-end ground conductor, and a sending-end signal converter for converting a differential signal transmitted through the sending-end conductors into a differential signal transmitted through the inner and outer conductors. The receiving-end substrate includes two receiving-end signal conductors, a receiving-end ground conductor, and a receiving-end signal converter for converting the differential signal transmitted through the inner and outer conductors into a differential signal transmitted through the receiving-end conductors.
