Abstract
A shielded cable includes adjacent first and second conductor sets, each conductor set includes a pair of insulated conductors. At least 90% of a periphery of each conductor set is encompassed by a shielding film. The cable also includes first and second non-conductive polymeric films disposed on opposite sides of the cable. The polymeric films include cover portions and pinched portions. In transverse cross section, the cover portions of the polymeric films in combination surround the conductor sets, and the pinched portions of the polymeric films in combination form pinched portions of the cable on each side of the cable. When the cable is laid flat, a center-to-center spacing of the pair of insulated conductors for the first conductor set is σand a center-to-center spacing of the first and second conductor sets is Σ. Σ/σis less than 4.
