Abstract
A signal cable for an AC-coupled link, may include: a signal conductor; a dielectric surrounding the signal conductor; and a ground sheath having a conductive layer disposed at least partially around the conductor such that the dielectric is positioned between the ground sheath and the signal conductor, wherein the conductive layer comprises a first portion extending in a first direction along the cable and a second portion extending in a second direction, opposite the first direction, along the cable and further wherein the first and second portions of the conductive layer are separated from each other by a gap, the gap being dimensioned to provide a determined amount of capacitance in series in the ground sheath. The gap may form a complete separation between the first and second portions of the conductive layer.
