A method for attaching a prefabricated miniature coaxial wire to a first electrical connection point, the prefabricated miniature coaxial wire having an electrically conductive core disposed within an electrical insulation layer disposed within an electrically conductive shield layer, includes attaching an exposed portion of the electrically conductive core at a distal end of the prefabricated miniature coaxial wire to the first electrical connection point, thereby establishing electrical conductivity between the electrically conductive core and the first electrical connection point, depositing a layer of electrically insulating material onto the exposed portion of the electrically conductive core such that the exposed portion of the electrically conductive core and the first electrical connection point is encased in the layer of electrically insulating material, and connecting the electrically conductive shield layer to a second electrical connection point using a connector formed from an electrically conductive material.
