A method includes providing a pre-assembled cable assembly including a plurality of wires and a circuit board. The pre-assembled cable assembly has a first end and a second end, and the wires are connected to the circuit board at the second end. The pre-assembled cable assembly is gripped at the first end and at the second end. While the pre-assembled cable assembly is gripped, an electromagnetic shield is applied around the wires.

The invention relates to a method for jacketing strandlike elements (10), comprising the method steps of: a) producing or providing a strandlike element (10), b) wrapping the strandlike element (10) with an adhesive tape (12) to give a wrapped strand (14), the adhesive tape (12) comprising as curable adhesive a radiation-curing and/or thermally curing adhesive, c) arranging the wrapped strand (14) in one or more holding elements (16) of a holding arrangement (18) to establish a predetermined shape and to give a shaped strand (20), and d) curing the curable adhesive in the shaped strand (20) by irradiating the adhesive tape (12) with electromagnetic radiation of a wavelength , to give a jacketed strand (22), wherein the one or the two or more holding elements (16) at least in sections are at least partly transmissive for electromagnetic radiation of wavelength , wherein the irradiation of the adhesive tape (12) with the electromagnetic radiation of wavelength takes place at least partly through the one or the two or more holding elements (16).
