Abstract
A cable assembly having a shielded conductor. The shielded conductor is formed by bonding a thin layer of conductive material to the outer surface of an insulated wire. The bonding may be achieved by coating the outside surface of the insulated wire with a metallic particle and solvent solution, and then heating the coated wire to flash off the solvent and achieve the desired bond. The outer conductive layer may be grounded by positioning a grounding conductor adjacent thereto prior to encapsulation in an outer insulating jacket. The grounding conductor may take the form of an insulated multi-strand metal wire which has an outer diameter approximately equal to the outer diameter of the shielded conductor. The equal diameters of the shielded and grounding conductors enable the cable assembly to be easily terminated in a miniature modular plug.
