In an interval from a first position to a second position, including the first position, the first isolating strand group continuously overlaps an outside of the second isolating strand group, and in an interval from the second position to a third position, including the second position, the second isolating strand group continuously overlaps an outside of the first isolating strand group.

A shielded electrical cable includes a conductor set and two generally parallel shielding films disposed around the conductor set.

In a first step, a stranded inner conductor (2) is provided, which consists of several wires (3) twisted together. Then the stranded inner conductor (1) is rotary swaged by means of a rotary swaging device (10). In a further step, the rotary swaged stranded inner conductor (3) is enclosed with a dielectric (4). In a further step, the dielectric (4) is enclosed with an outer conductor (5) and a cable sheath (6).

A shielded cable includes adjacent first and second conductor sets, each conductor set includes a pair of insulated conductors. At least 90% of a periphery of each conductor set is encompassed by a shielding film. The cable also includes first and second non-conductive polymeric films disposed on opposite sides of the cable. The polymeric films include cover portions and pinched portions. In transverse cross section, the cover portions of the polymeric films in combination surround the conductor sets, and the pinched portions of the polymeric films in combination form pinched portions of the cable on each side of the cable.
