Semi-automated (with manual feeding) and fully automated (with automated feeding) solutions for using a vision system to evaluate shield trim quality on shielded cables. The vision system uses a multiplicity of cameras and a corresponding multiplicity of mirrors in order to achieve a 360-degree view of the cable segment to be inspected. Cables to be inspected are positioned in a repeatable location based on the strip length of the cable (where the edge of the cable jacket is located relative to the end of the cable). The processing system receives a live image feed from the camera system and then uses color and dimensional analysis of the acquired images to determine whether the shield trim meets quality control specifications or not.

The present invention relates to a coaxial cable, and particularly to a small-diameter coaxial cable for use in frequency bands of 100 MHz or more. The present invention addresses the problem of providing a coaxial cable which has excellent flexibility, a small outer diameter, and excellent shielding characteristics. The problem is solved by a coaxial cable having an outer conductor which is formed by mixing and laterally winding strands in the same direction, the strands having an outer diameter difference of not less than 10% between a large-diameter strand having a maximum outer diameter and a small-diameter strand having a minimum outer diameter.
