Probe assembly includes an ultrasound probe and a cable assembly configured to communicatively couple the ultrasound probe to a control system and transmit signals therethrough. The cable assembly includes a cable jacket surrounding a channel of the cable assembly. The cable assembly also includes a plurality of wire pairs extending through the channel. The channel being sized and shaped to permit the wire pairs to move relative to one another within the channel when the probe assembly is moved. The wire pairs and the channel are configured to have a designated pack ratio (Area/Area). The Areaincludes a collective cross-sectional area of the wire pairs, and the Areais equal to a cross-sectional area of the channel.

A cable () includes a center conductor (). An insulating material in the form of a layer () surrounds the center conductor. A sparse shield () partially surrounds the insulating material. The sparse shield may include a plurality of conductors, which are grouped adjacent to one another within a space around the insulating layer that has a length that is less than 25% of the total circumference of the insulating layer. An insulating jacket () covers the sparse shield and the remainder of the cable. The cable may be used in a cable assembly ().

A cable assembly includes a plurality of wires. Each wire has a first end, intermediate section, and a second end. The intermediate sections of the respective wires are detached from each other. A conductive shield surrounds the respective intermediate sections of the plurality of wires. Each wire includes a conductor, an insulating layer that surrounds the conductor, and a conductive coating formed on an outside surface of the insulating layer.
