A shielded electrical cable includes conductor sets extending along a length of the cable and spaced apart from each other along a width of the cable. First and second shielding films are disposed on opposite sides of the cable and include cover portions and pinched portions arranged such that, in transverse cross section, the cover portions of the films in combination substantially surround each conductor set. An adhesive layer bonds the shielding films together in the pinched portions of the cable. A transverse bending of the cable at a cable location of no more than 180 degrees over an inner radius of at most 2 mm causes a cable impedance of the selected insulated conductor proximate the cable location to vary by no more than 2 percent from an initial cable impedance measured at the cable location in an unbent configuration.

A sealed electrical connector assembly includes a connector housing having a first end, a second end, and an opening that extends from the first end to the second end. The opening defines an inner surface of the connector housing. A seal is disposed within the opening of the connector housing and includes a first end, a second end, an outer surface, and a slot that extends from the first end of the seal to the second end of the seal. The outer surface of the seal is in sealing engagement with the inner surface of the connector housing, and the slot defines an inner surface of the seal. A flat flexible conductor disposed within the slot of the seal and includes a plurality of electrically conductive traces and an outer surface. The outer surface of the flat flexible conductor is in sealing engagement with the inner surface of the seal.

Apparatus and associated methods relate to a bridge/splitter connector for configuring an electrical signal distribution network. The bridge/splitter connector includes a body block and two cable retention covers, each configured to removably engage the body block. The body block has two cable channels, each configured to receive a multi-conductor flat cable therewithin. Each cable channel has a plurality of conductive piercing members laterally spaced apart from one another for piercing insulation of the multi-conductor flat cables received so as to conductively contact a corresponding one of a plurality of conductive wires of the multi-conductor flat cable. Each of the plurality of conductive piercing members of each cable channel is conductively coupled to a corresponding one of the plurality of piercing members of the other cable channel, The cable retention members are configured to retain the multi-conductor flat cables received within the cable channels when engaged with the body block.
